My classmates and I groan and complain in unison whenever English appears on our timetable.
In short; my teacher's a bore, (as dull as a doorknob), the subject seems irrelevant and marking appears random, I feel like there are better ways to spend my time than to be lectured about some obscure author's context or the importance of hyperbole in a short story, before cramming useless information into my mind only days before an exam. :shoot:

I really liked English in year 10, but I feel like all the interest has been drained out of me. It is affecting me because I'm so unmotivated towards and unwilling to work in English



In short: how can I learn to love English?

I'm guessing you don't like your set texts?

Deal the fuck with it if you ask me. Once you finish your HSC you will realise you wasted your time hating your subject/s. Unless you're a dropkick. Enjoy the damn subject for the sake of being with mates and cracking jokes in class.

Remember some motivation is that after HSC you can sell your essays ;)

Respect if for what it is. I used to hate Shakespeare with a passion; but if you can look at the talent and skill of the work, it at least made me not hate it as much lol

Thanks for all your opinions guys.... I think it might just be the module that I don't like because I actually really do like Shakespeare.(not doing that at the moment though) I'll try and learn to love it I guess :)
