Abstract: This study evaluates the effect of poetry in autonomous ELT classes. Poetry is opted to teach English since it is considered as a valuable authentic material for cultural enrichment, language enrichment, literary enjoyment and personal involvement (Collie & Slater, 1990). Autonomous classes may help students improve their logical thinking and reasoning abilities. And it may also provide a favorite atmosphere for language learning. The participants were 60 students from Azad University, Ahvaz, Iran. The final results proved significant differences in the students’ general intake and final output.
