Online lessons often include reading a story from a graded reader, feedback on home-work and sentences of new vocabulary, working on a grammar point, using a workbook. For Literature we can look at a poem, part of a play, and part of a novel. My favourite writers are Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and the Bronte sisters.
