To gain a love of reading and confidence in discussing opinions about a book
I am a British teacher who teaches many book clubs on Outschool such as Pride and Prejudice, Anne of Green Gables, A Christmas Carol, Carrie's War, and so much more. I love helping students gain a love of reading, especially through British literature, the classics, and books that make their characters come to life. I give students the space to discuss their favorite books and add new favorites to their list.
