Well there is html mode of course, and there's a nice tutorial for that
at http://xahlee.org/emacs/emacs_html.html. That would definitely save
you typing tags. I don't know if you are expected to use CSS for your
fonts, styling and so on, it probably depends how advanced you are in
the course, but there is also a CSS mode with recent versions of
emacs. Predictive mode also has support for completing HTML tags, and
maybe other things you want as well -

I haven't use it myself yet, but it looks pretty flexible.
If you start with a plain text file you could also use txt2html, which
is a standalone tool that, as its name suggests, generates html from
plain text files. It only generates the basic HTML though, including
tables and so forth, you would have to add any styling yourself.
There is also emacs muse, of course, which can publish HTML, but I guess
that's not what you want.
