I always found that 'The Ghost of Christmas Present' to be a mirror of the author himself Charles Dickens. I also went through my own personal feelings about the subject of what 'A Christmas Carol's story is truly about.

Great question! Whenever I put long quotations in my videos, I tend to discuss multiple aspects about them and say how they might contribute to a bigger picture. What you might want to do is focus on only a small and specific part of the quotation I've presented. So for the second one, you might want to talk about how the 'holly wreath' is a classic Christmas image, or how the 'antique scabbard' makes the spirit seem peaceful. In essence, identify the specific part of the quotation you want to discuss, and only quote that bit!
You're videos on the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future I find informative and interesting. Especially since the ghosts line up with the holy trinity being the son/ Jesus christ, the father/God and the holy spirit/ghost. I looked and watched multiple different tv or movie versions of the novel and some hit home while others are close or nowhere near close but all of them take a different spin on the novel. They run with whatever idea the have for their retelling of a Christmas carol in a different light but the one that looks or rather has the same spirit and emotion as the novel is "The stingiest man in town." This adaptation is really good and even though it's a somewhat older adaptation than say the Jim Carrie Christmas Carol which I believe is newer than the stingiest man in town which it's also a musical but the songs can either be catchy or tug at your heartstrings and believe me on that part most other adaptations don't come near as close to actually making me cry as the stingiest man in town does even if it's just one scene.
I'll add 'make a video about writing analytical paragraphs' to my very long list! I've never come across the PEAZ acronym before (I'm more familiar with PEARL, PEEL, PEASWA, WHW) - what does it stand for?
To be brutally honest, they make very, very little in the way of income from ad revenue. On a really good day (which for me is 150 hours watched and 1500 views), the combined revenue from all of my videos might be £3 or so. My best performing video has generated £21 in the 13 months it has been up. Considering each video takes me about 10-12 hours to make (reading, research, notes, making the slides, recording the video, editing it, uploading the video and creating metadata), I'm definitely working at less than minimum wage!! Hope that clears that up for you? How come you ask?
@@DystopiaJunkie Thanks very much for the reply and sorry for the late reply from me. I was wondering if you were being adequately rewarded for all your hard work and clearly this isn't the case.. I would lile to thank you for all that you do for us and would like to wish you all the best in the future. Here's to hoping that ad revenue will come up😅.. Many Thanks
@@sourrice1741 no worries - glad to demystify the mechanisms of UA-cam for you! Maybe one day I'll be able to retire and just make UA-cam videos for a living, but I don't think that'll happen for... another 20 years 😂 Thanks for the kind words, they really do mean a lot - good luck with all of your studies! You know where to find English revision videos if you ever need them! 😁
@@DystopiaJunkie yo man i too really appreciate yo hard work dude its crazy to me how much you want to help other people.

Anyone else here cause you have to make notes on it for homework
Yes 😢
how do we shorten large quotes like the second one? my teachers says we should use short quotes as they are easier to remember

Can you make a video on how to make peaz paragraphs on Christmas Carol
I'll add 'make a video about writing analytical paragraphs' to my very long list! I've never come across the PEAZ acronym before (I'm more familiar with PEARL, PEEL, PEASWA, WHW) - what does it stand for?
@@DystopiaJunkie it stands for point, evidence, analysis, and zoom
Ooh, I haven't heard that one before, but I'm confident I know what sort of thing you need to do in the 'zoom' now!
@@DystopiaJunkie thank you
No no - thank you for clearing that up for me! 😊
Just a question for you, are these videos making any income or revenue for you. Just curious. Thanks for all the work you do!
