For English enthusiasts and math nuts alike, literature can be a welcome escape from the monotony of dry textbooks and commonplace curriculum. Great literature is the colorful and daring brother of the oftentimes dull documents and prosaic passages found in many classrooms. Even throughout humanities lessons, fiction offers respite from humdrum grammar lessons and vocabulary quizzes. If given the time and attention—and if allowed to take over the imagination of a reader, young or old—literature provides a fantastic foray into a well-crafted web of characters, plot twists and peculiar planes of life. The best books have taken audiences all over the map—to uninhabited tropical islands, smoky urban landscapes pulsing with chatter, pastoral meadows where sheep roam free. However, when tests and essays come into the picture, literature can pose a challenge. Indeed, the comprehension of a text asks a lot of its reader. We must keep track of various narrative paths, people and nuances; we must identify symbols, elements of figurative language and an author’s tone. On the English Literature AP exam in particular, we must recall characters’ names and the underlying themes of a work. At times, the test even asks us to draw on past readings and literary currents to make connections among various texts. Exams like this can be intimidating, as can essay writing. However, our New York tutors can help you develop your own strategies (and teach you some of our favorites) for scoring big on your literary endeavors.
