What the college says

About the course(s):A Level English Language explores the world of words; both spoken and written. You will learn a range of new terminology ? also known as Linguistic Methods ? and then use this learning to analyse the ways in which language is manipulated to show different attitudes, to provoke response from an audience and to challenge or uphold values in society. Furthermore, you will be asked to demonstrate your writing skills under exam conditions, producing an argumentative style essay on language diversity (which could be based on gender, power or occupation) alongside a lively opinion article on attitudes towards language.
