Everything Your English Teacher Wants You to Know
This course is a page by page literary analysis and literary deconstruction of the classic Steinbeck novel “Of Mice and Men,” taught by a Middle and High School English teacher with over 15 years of classroom teaching experience. This is the information I teach my students in my English classes. It is an entire English class walking you through the analysis and deconstruction of the book, step by step, page by page, line by line, with the emphasis on making it understandable.
The introduction includes a contextual discussion of the historical time period of the novel to help you make sense of what is happening and why, as well as an understanding of the meaning of the title.
Each chapter includes a plot summary, an in-depth analysis of the characters and the story as a whole, as well as a write-up of critical quotes and an explanation as to why they are important. Focus is given to understanding how and why information is relevant and important, and how it relates to other parts of the story.
In addition, the course is taught with an emphasis on noting and understanding the key ideas, concepts and insights that a Middle or High School English teacher is looking for you to gain from reading and analyzing the text.
