From classic novels to contemporary poetry, each selection is chosen to challenge students’ understanding and inspire thoughtful discussions.
The curriculum emphasizes literary analysis, encouraging students to delve deep into the themes, characters, and stylistic choices of the works we study. This analytical approach not only fosters a greater appreciation for literature but also equips students with the critical skills necessary for success in various academic fields.

Creative writing is another cornerstone of our English Unit. Students are encouraged to explore their imaginations and express their unique voices through various writing forms, including poetry, short stories, and personal essays.

This creative process is vital, as it empowers students to convey their ideas and emotions effectively.
To complement our curriculum, we offer a range of engaging activities that bring literature to life. Literature circles allow students to take charge of their learning by discussing selected texts in small groups, promoting collaboration and deeper understanding. Guest speakers from the literary world share their experiences and insights, bridging the gap between classroom learning and real-world applications. Additionally, creative writing contests encourage students to showcase their talents, fostering a sense of achievement and pride in their work.
The English Unit at Azhar College also focuses on building a strong community among students. Collaborative projects and group discussions create a welcoming atmosphere where every voice is valued.
