    this is unfortunately 3 years and 6 months too late for me - had to slowly learn all of this over time but looking back can say to current students - LISTEN TO GRACE AND GET HER PLANNER!!

    Planning ? Revision ? Study ? What's all that about ?
    Uni programme:
    Beer, beer, beer, sleep, kebab breakfast, lectures-sleep-lectures-sleep, beer, beer, beer repeat.

    Hi Grace, would you ever consider making the student planner as an electronic version that can be imported into common apps used by student (ie notability)? Also, as a US customer, it solves the shipping length and price problem. I have the regular planner, but I often find myself not using it because I am mostly on my iPad for my doctoral program and don't want to carry another book in my bag to keep track of.

    I loved watching grace’s uni vlogs back when she would show us her essay skeleton plans, her garlicky mushroom lunches in between revision sessions, her workouts and her making the gracefituk guides! Such good times. It made me feel so motivated to work! I would play her vlogs in the background as I was studying because it felt like I had a study buddy with me and pushed me to do so much more! Miss the vlogs, i loved rewatching them 😢 but today’s video was SUCH a treat, it reminded me of those vlogs ❤

    Hi Grace. I understand why you took all your old videos down but is there somewhere (or could you create somewhere) we can go to watch them or are they forever lost to time? I found them very informative/ entertaining, especially whilst I was studying myself and I'm sure other people would too.

    Nothing is easier than writing an essay, and you can write it as long as you want, no matter whether it is 10,000 words or 50,000 words or as long as the length of a novel if you are actually good at English. All what you need to do is to get more and more facts about the same topic which you are writing about to analyse them. It is very much similar to making an argument and expanding it. A valid argument includes a claim , evidence and a conclusion. Similarly, a good essay must have a claim, which is your subjective statement on the topic which you are going to discuss in your essay, and at least 3 main points related to your subjective statement or thesis statement, and a conclusion. You can expand any simple argument into a paragraph as long as you want with more proofs which support the main evidence, and analyse the supporting proofs, which will lead to a long paragraph with the claim as the topic sentence. Similarly you can expand each of you main points in the body of your essay to make the essay as long as you wan. The conclusion must connect your subjective statement or thesis stated in your introduction with your main points presented in the body of the essay, like the way how a conclusion of a valid argument connects a claim and its reasons or pieces of evidence together.
    Critical thinking is the foundation for non-fictional writing. Wild imagination and figurative languages are the base for fictional writing. Besides those you also need to know how to search for and verify valid data for your writing.
    That's all what you need for any good essay.
    I could have become a very renounced writer and taught English language to English-speakers, but i don't have any interest in such things, while my passion is for natural science research, and teach natural science to those who want to have critical thinking and good knowledge of STEM
