Great Expectations, so far, has been a somewhat interesting book. Most of the time, it's quite difficult to understand. However, to help me cope with the Dickensian language, I have a copy of the book on my Kindle that has an integrated study guide, complete with chapter summaries. Normally I will read the chapter, make notes of what I did not understand, and then read the summary to help fill in those gaps.
At school, I just do the assigned work, because that's all I have time for. Sometimes we discuss questions, but we don't do that so much anymore. That's okay, though. What I don't understand I get from the chapter summary. I do quite enjoy discussion, however. It not only lets me look real smart-like, but it allows for a greater understanding of the text.
