Listen for anyone taking their exam now or in a couple years, staying up late panicking isn’t effective I passed with a 9 and can personally tell you I though I was gonna fail. You have to remember even if you slept through the classes or didn’t show up at all that you’ve come to far to be panicking or worrying. Instead think about this, what does the marking want, it wants you to explain and evaluate. Your quotes dont have to be anything to do with that specific character as long as you can change it into that. (For example “Get him Lennie” which is a command made by George reveals the personality traits and social standing of candy as candy did not make any commands or remarks during the fight, this shows how timid candy was which is re instated later when his dog gets shot. This makes candy stand out from men like Carlson but also reminds us that candy is still held back by his disabilities due to 1930’s American mindsets. ) It’s obscure stuff like that. You don’t need to revise all the quotes and loose sleep, you need to drink water keep the thoughts in the back of your head and force yourself to sleep. I hope this helps
yeah my teacher did quote tests and all and like i remeber the quotes, but theyre just an illustration. i have a closed book essay to write tomorrow and yeah im trying to revise key topics rather than quotes tbh
Thankyou so much man I got my exam in 8 hours and need to wake up in 5 and haven’t slept yet. Was going to watch this video but you’ve made me think in a different way so Thankyou!
That was fantastic. I read this book and after reading it, I knew I needed to ‘work it out.’ As a writer, I felt there was so much more to this novella than the simple story. I didn’t realize how much was there, though. I appreciate this. I’m truly amazed at Steinbeck’s talent.
Thank you so much for this. I was looking for a summary before i start school and this is very well done. The facts that you not only have character but you have themes which is what many fail to have. THANK YOU
Such an amazing and helpful video! I have JC mocks in a week and I really struggle to find good English analysis videos, but this is just amazing thank you!
This wonderful, thank you. I love that fact that you also give a brief description of other historical events, Jim Crow, Great Depression etc, it helps to explain so much about the novella
I think I’ve watched your video about 5 times to be honest, it was so helpful for me in mocks and I have my first gcse English Literature paper this morning, thank you for making this and wish me luck! 🤞
Thank you so much for this! I just finished reading the book, since I'm not from the states I don't really know a lot about their history and I couldn't understand all the context.
i love your online course - thanks so much for all the help from it. i wanted to ask that do you have any predictions of what could come up this year for of mice and men? thanks a lot!
Amazing!!! Thank you so much, it's so lovely to hear you are enjoying the course... more new lessons are on the way too. Please also leave a review on Udemy? That would be awesome if you could! :-) Happy Revising!
@@FirstRateTutors Hello Miss Njau. I have just left a highly detailed 5 star rating for you on the Udemy course. Thanksss sooo much!!! However, it would be extremely lovely if you could also add some stuff on there for Novels and books such as Of Mice and Men, A View From The Bridge, and Macbeth? That would be extremely nice. Thanks a lot Miss Njau!! :)
@@MS-jg2hi it's in the works... beginning with Of Mice and Men! The Crucible will follow and we do actually have Macbeth lessons - these will be added too! Thank you so, so much for your feedback, it's always amazing to hear from students who are finding the course helpful! :-)
@@MS-jg2hi As you have been so awesome in reviewing the course plus supporting our channel, I made sure to get the Mice and Men revision material ready! It's all uploaded in the course - and there's also a huge revision pack with six model answers you can download and use. Macbeth is on its way.... soon! :-)
thank you so much, you don't know how much this means to me. I hated the book of mice and men haha and with my mocks coming up in exactly 10 days I figured I should do some revision. You've shown me a greater understanding and appreciation of the novel which without you, I wouldn't have ever found.
integrate it into what you say. don't stop and then talk about context. say something, for example, crooks' lack of dreams. you can then say that 'this is engendered by attitudes towards poc in this time period. through the jim crow laws and the kkk, it is clear that crooks' lacks dreams because he has become so use to his place in society.' hope this helps :)
@first rate tutors what shocks me is that you discuss the character of Carlson but don't include Crooks who is one of the main characters in the novel? Odd

@@FirstRateTutors please read my comment
Finding this an hour before exam 😭😭😭😭
ayo good luck for tomorrow yall
To get all of the Context marks in this, whats the best way to structure an answer. I am really stuck and stressed about it
integrate it into what you say. don't stop and then talk about context. say something, for example, crooks' lack of dreams. you can then say that 'this is engendered by attitudes towards poc in this time period. through the jim crow laws and the kkk, it is clear that crooks' lacks dreams because he has become so use to his place in society.' hope this helps :)
Thank you :)
You're welcome!!
Watching this the night before having not read the book and my exam is tomorrow. Will let u guys know if I pass.
hi, I was just wondering how slim 'abdicates his power' at the end of the novella?
@first rate tutors what shocks me is that you discuss the character of Carlson but don't include Crooks who is one of the main characters in the novel? Odd
Crooks has a dedicated video if you want to check it out.
Crooks is included from 19:27 in this video
i have an exam in 10 days, these videos that are extremely helpful, thanks!
You're welcome 😊
Day after tomorrow now 😬

Can you link the idea of survival of the fittest to loneliness?
i'd link it to the great depression instead but you could say that due to survival of fittest - it meant you were left alone if u survived idk
may i please have the link to this powerpoint
just screenshot every time a new slide shows, ez af
Do you know what “moreover” and “bear in mind” mean?
Moreover = Furthermore / Additionally
Bear in mind = Keep in mind / Remember
my test is tomorrow... wish me luck :)

Best of luck!
