Speaking as former recent teen ( I am 21 now) you have to make it relate in someway to their lives. Like for instance, if you have ever seen the movie Romeo and Juliet that has Leonardo Decaprio in it then you could tell that the way the story is told in it is much more appealing to students. It adds meaning to "thou hast not" kind of language that seems so foreign and boring to most teens. That is the key to why kids find literature so dry alot of the time...the language is difficult and students get frustrated trying to even understand what they are reading, much less the meaning behind it. I hope that helps. Kep thing to remember, as with all subjects, is people will learn it better and be more interested in it if you can make it relate to their lives some how...which is the are of being a teacher i suppose.
