Excerpt from Advanced English Composition The teacher's main duty is to set work, to appraise it, and criticise it. The actual amount of oral teaching to be done is very small. The chief work is the correction of essays. 1. Setting the Essay. - (1) State the subject, or subjects. It is not necessary that all should write on the same subject. In the case of Technical essays it is impossible, for the number of reference books is small. There should be a fixed list of technical essay subjects. All should write on each subject, but not all in the same week. It is a good thing to draw up a programme. Copying is so easily detected here that it is not worth attempting. When the whole of a subject cannot be worked out in one period, plus its evening's preparation, two periods may be given. But it is better to divide up the subject into sections, e.g. 1st period, drawing up of notes, 2nd, writing first scene, 3rd, writing second scene (in the case of a story), first part, etc. (in the case of an essay). A single essay subject may take a fortnight for the boys to write. 2. Explaining the Treatment. - This should be very brief and very practical.
