Hi you videos are my favourite revision resources ever, you make the videos so interesting and fun. And I was just wondering whether you could make some A Christmas Carol videos? I know you’re probably really busy and you might like not even teach it in depth or something so you wouldn’t be able to. But if you can, it would be so helpful ❤
thank you so muchhh
I love your videos so much they’re so helpful! Can you please do analysis on the characters and themes of Macbeth??
Thank you this was sooo helpful
in the creative writing do you also have to show/ write up your plan in your exam paper?
Selfhood begins with walking away and love is proved in letting go. My mom read this to me in pre-school
😂
Ohh myyy godd.. She actually saved me😭❤️
when he says “i unloosed her chain” you could also mention how the fact the boat was chained up served as a warning for him to not steal it, and blinded by his confidence and his arrogance he ignored the warning, stole it, and got traumatised anyways
What does the 'hand that mocked and the heart that fed' mean?
these videos have been super useful thankyou for making me ACTUALLY enjoy English !!!

This didn't help at all

Similarly, the metaphor “Mouth of hell” creates the impression that there is no escape from the valley once it has been entered. This also alludes to the story of the Roman soldier, Curtius, who rode his horse into the mouth of hell and was killed sacrificially, saving Rome. i found this here! :) pmt.physicsandmathstutor.com/download/English-Literature/GCSE/Notes/AQA/Poetry/Power-and-Conflict-Anthology/The%20Charge%20of%20the%20Light%20Brigade%20-%20Alfred%20Lord%20Tennyson.pdf

GENUINELY THIS BEATS EVERY SINGLE POETRY VIDEO I'VE EVER SEEN????????? im defo watching the rest of the poetry series omg thank you so muchhhh 🥺💖
Love this video but in my school we use EPIIICC E - ESTABLISH P - PICTURE THIS: (the worst case scenario) I - INFORMATION (facts, stats and expert opinions) I - I CAN REMEMBER (Anecdote) I - Now IMAGINE: (the best case scenario) C - COUNTER (make sure to counter the counter in the same paragraph as you aren’t making a balanced argument) C - CONCLUSION (wrap up your argument and use some sort of sentence to add effect. It’s 7 paragraphs and around 6.5 mins per paragraph if you give yourself 45 minutes to write it.
please could you make a video for the strange case of dr jekyll and my hyde? these are really helpful!
best in the game
