One of my best classes at Bellarmine and truly one that prepared me well for my future. Would really recommend taking over the other English classes even though it’s AP, simply because of how much fun you get to have while also learning. This class will really make you enjoy literature and reading as a whole, as well as Shakespeare. Decent amount of essays and writing involved and A LOT of tests that are rlly hard but it’s ok because they prepare you well for the actual AP test.

Mr. Marcel is a rlly funny and chill guy (and even if he insults you he means it playfully). He has a passion for the class so if you respect him he will respect you
