thank you so much, everytime i ask my teacher HOW EXACTLY i should answer these questions she always says to "practice more". But THIS is what i genuinely needed, an indepth guide to how i should structure my own answer. Thank you so much again, ive been feeling so frustrated with english
My exam is on 21st October
Me too, it's tomorrow. Let's do our best yeah
I've been watching these videos via repeat, made some notes and then practice, but no I'm not getting anywhere
would sentences and anaphora not be structural devices?
How exactly do you analyze form and structure? My exam is in 2 weeks. Hope you can help!
Wallahi im cooked
Please upload more paper 3 and 4 videos!!!
❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
please post videos for p3 and p4!!!! i tried other youtube channels but none of them were as good as you. oct/nov 24 is in few weeks nowww we'd really appreciate some A2 content.
could you make and post a video on a sample response for comparitive writing?
0:35 1. Feature-Spotting 2:04 2. Describing effects imprecisely 5:20 3. Not using the correct linguistic terminology 6:35 4. Using long quotes
hello i got a question, can i repeat the same point? Like after the third paragraph there is a change of the tone in the rest of the paragraphs, which is a harsh tone.
These videos are amazing. Thank-you.
Kindly share a written analysis for each question (paper 1 and paper 2).Thanks
Can you please explain all the command words and how to attempt the task according to different command words
How do we conclude the commentary? Do we write a conclusion or just simply end it end after the last point?

Thank you! Very useful video

Hello Miss, I am soo greatful for all these videos you have u[ploaded! Could you please tell whether its necessary to add linguists and their theories in the language change question? and if so who are the most important ones that I can learn about? is there any trick to help me remember as to which linguist can be added in a particular language framework? I am really struggling with this, it would be of great help if you could guide me please!
Hello ma'am. I have just finished my AS level Paper 2 exam today, and I would like to thank you a lot for all your help. I would not have done this well if it weren't for your useful insight and great guidance. Thank you so much!

I pray Jesus Christ blesses this channel and ALLLL the people that are involved in getting this content to us…truly a lifesaver in so many ways ❤❤❤ God bless your gifts of teaching, in Jesus name we pray amen!
I am not giving a2 English next year it too hard loll I’m giving XL subjects instead of A2
I’M GOING TO FAIL HOW ARE WE EVEN EXPECTED TO DO THIS WITHOUT EXTERNAL RESEARCH AND ‘THINKING-ABOUT-IT’?? Goodbye.
I second so hard 😭🤣 It's fr a matter of luck Lucky- something from your domain pops up on the exam Unlucky- something you've never so much as considered shows up and you're left totally blank 😢
you gotta rely on being creative friend! Don't freak out about it lovely, its a mental battle you gotta fight first in order to overcome what could be failure. If you psych yourself out and tell yourself youre gonna fail, youre gonna believe it and you'll just set yourself up for failure. trust me I used to do the same thing and it held me back so much, u just gotta put ur mind to it babes❤ I'll be praying for you and everyone testing :) have no fear! I know God will work it out for you trust and believe in that for now my best advice would be to brush up on your Text forms (Genres like reviews, diaries, advertisements, leaflets, desc vs narrative, etc) and their textbook features so you can throw that into ur writing and exploit it for some marks (But make sure it flows please! Dont throw in informal language, or colloquialism, when ur asked to write a professional speech..register/tone has to match!) And revise some more rhetorical devices and vocab! Find ones that are flexible and can be used easily but stand out enough to examiners as uncommon! Youre gonna do great lovely! God bless you :)))
