🙋🏻♀️Who am I?
If you are looking for a YT Channel to guide you through Year 10 & 11 to Grade 9s at GCSE, you have come to the right place!
My name is Tamra and I achieved Grade 9s in all of my subjects at GCSE. However, I was not always achieving Grade 9s in Year 11. I actually went from a Grade 6 to Grade 9 in English Language - I did this by changing my mindset, how I looked and answered the questions.
With hard work and my (free) guidance, you will be able to get higher grades and perhaps even all 9s in your final exams if you put your mind to it. Anything is possible :). Feel free to like, comment or subscribe if this helps you. I hope to see you in the next video.

Thank you for this video it's making me feel way more confident for my language paper 1 exam x
Glad to hear it 😄 all the best with english!! You've got this 🫶
You are a lifesaver Tamra! I have my gcse exams in a few weeks and even though I got a 5 on my English language many times I'm trying to push myself to get a 7 and I've realised that I haven't used most of the techniques and better wording in the exam which is possibly the reason why I got a 5 in my recent mocks. I'm going to use your tips and do past papers and hopefully I get a better grade! Thank you so much
samee i have it in a few weeks i’m predicted a 6 but i want an 8 so baddddd

thank you so so much!!! I watched this video to help me for my Paper 1 mock exam, and I got 99%! I'm so happy-
Wow that's amazing!! Keep up the great work 🙌🫶
yayyy youre posting again !! your posts are so helpful and different from other tips ive seen
Thank you!
I will try to post more regularly, it's just takes a long time to put these videos together alongside A Level work. :)
@@tamratips of course :D dont stress yourself out about it too much !
Highly appricaiated if you do a paper writing video❤❤
Heyyy Tamra, thanks so much for the video :P
honestly was so lost without this!!!
I talked to my teacher about your tactic of pre-planning stories before hand and then tailoring them to the question.
Could you possibly give a few ideas regarding that? i.e. what 3 types of story should I make up (happy story, sad story...) or maybe what 3 plots can I have that will make me best prepared for the question?
Once again huge thanks !! :D
So glad the video helped :)
This is where you can tailor the story to what you enjoy writing. I enjoyed writing thriller plots so my stories were all about a person regretting what they did, the story would slowly reveal what they did and why they feel guilty and then at the end, they accept what they did and realise it is not so bad. The realisation is the character development. Honestly, you can pick whatever genre you are into and then make 2 narratives and 1 description.
@@tamratips how did you make these plots
Great video . Can you please share ur notes for literature plzzzzzzz as u don’t need them anymore
I think ill get a 4 but goodluck everyone waaaa ill use these tips thank you
what did you get?
@@funstop5402 u never hear from them they dont respond probably fucked up
hey tamara i have a non fiction english lang paper tomorow and have not revised at all an tips and is it the same ish as fiction thanks any and all tips would help tysm loved the vedio btw super helpfull!
thank you!!
also in one of your previous videos you mentioned how you looked at the past papers for the past 10 years. which website did you get them from?
Do you mean for maths? Probably Physics and Maths Tutor. But you can always search your board name, the paper and the year you want and it should come up.
@@tamratips okay, thanks :) i meant for other subjects but idk why i didn't even think about searching them up rather than just using the official website lmao
yessss
Is there any structure we should use in q2 e.g: what has the writer done + why + imply?
Hii Tamra thank you for this vid it's so helpful as I got a grade 8 in my previous mocks but idk how to reach a 9 and my teachers never tell me what I'm missing to reach it they just say I'm close to a 9 which isn't helpful at all so I will try to push for that 9 for GCSE's this year! Please could you do these videos for Science and other subjects you did for GCSE's x
Keep at it! To secure a grade 9, see if you can identify which question you are losing the most marks, for example, I was never very good at the 20 marker so I worked on that. Look at the AQA model answers in the examiner report for the top level and try and see what they are looking for that you are missing.
I will try and rush some videos for science and RE but can't make any promises as I have my own exams coming up too. I will do a live before the exams so any questions I haven't answered can be brought up :)
@@tamratips ok science would be super useful as I do that subject and bio is first and thank you for the advice! I understand that you have exams so it's okay if you can't do the other videos thanks for the help and good luck for your exams x
How did you plan the description before the exam? I don't know how because the picture given to you could be very different every time so i was wondering if you could share the one you planned beforehand?
Hi, you will always need contrast in your story so you can practice describing two contrasting descriptions. The image given in the brief will always give you enough freedom to write anything as long as you relate it to the question in one part of your story. This is because there is no higher tier or lower tier so the exam has to be open to all levels.
You can plan a description/plot and look at all the past paper questions for P1Q5 and practice adapting your story/description into the prompt given,
I’m good at creative writing but not reflecting something form the text of exam
how would i need to go from a 4 to a 7 in english language with the time left?
Practice doing past paper questions and timing yourself. Compare your answers with the AQA model answers from the examiner report of that year and see what you have missed. Then try and fill in your missing gaps in the next practice question you do.
U know my teachers are lazy and wont mark my paper so would it be fine if i use the mark scheme to mark ?
Yes! The mark scheme also has some model answers for the text so you can compare their ideas with your ideas :)
My exam is tomorrow😭
Can you plz do a video on how to plan for paper 1 question 5 plzzzzzzzzzzzz.what do u mean by plot??
Currently i have written a story and i am memorising it as I have no clue plzzz help. I really like ur videos
Mark it with your teacher and see what mark it is. If it is the high marks then memorise it and adapt it to the question they give
Ok I will do that . But she mentioned not to memorise the story ??? I am confused
@@Zodi-ot1jl its totally upto u . I recently memorised a top grade story which I wrote by myself and got 35/40
Hello Tamara, for paper 1 question 4 do you need to write paragraphs for both agree and disagree or do you only choose one?
you choose one but make sure that one of the paraghphs focuses on another perspective so u can say "howver another we can we can see this is this way or that way instead of this way or u can say its can be argued that this that
I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video!
It actually help me so much to understand what I have to do :)
I'm not a native speaker so I'm struggling in English and I'm year 11 so I just have 6 months and its just about 1 month that I moved in Newcastle-
So I'm panicking a lottt but thank you again🤍
So glad it helped! English is really hard, even for native speakers so you are doing really well! :))
Should we do Q5 first?
i did that in my 2nd mock and i got a 7
but i also revised a lot more for my 2nd mock then i did for my 1st so it depends on
You need to become an English teacher 😂😂
where was this during my IGCSEs CRYING lol
You did IGCSEs?
@@NitrotheHedgie yep!
*ignore that comment, this is not me.*
@@NitrotheHedgie ???

So helpful! Thanks to following these tips I was 7 marks off a 9 in my mock and I look back and it was really easy marks i didn’t get! Back here for my paper 1 assessment I hope to at least pass 🫶🏾
