Clare Eames -
English Language
“I chose to study English Language
at A-Level because I enjoyed it at
GCSE and achieved a good grade, and
I also wanted to further my
knowledge of the language. This
subject allows you to improve both
your analytical and creative skills
and it is very enjoyable. At AS you
learn about the language associated
with gender, power and technology
and how to categorise and analyse
texts. You do two pieces of
coursework, which can be about
anything and in any style. This
allows you to show a lot of
creativity. At A2 you learn about
language acquisition and language
change and you do a coursework
investigation on a particular
subject involving language. The
course is demanding but interesting
and the teachers give you plenty of
help while still letting you be
independent and imaginative. I
thoroughly enjoy studying English
Language at Northallerton College
and I would definitely recommend it
to others.”
