Love this format of video & fantastic editing. Keep up the great work with the English content. You’re helping many, many students with what is a really tough subject. 🔥
love your videos so much, you've helped me boost my literature grade from a 6 to an 8. I was wondering if you could make a video on the aqa short story anthology, as I'm struggling to find resources and it's my weakest part of the exam thank you!
for your 5 key quotes of power and conflict. should i remember the whole quote then analyse the words within it or just remember the specific phrases/words that i analyse, as many of the quotes are very long which would make it hard to remember
hello sir love the daily videos! can you do examples of effective 5 minute planning techniques for paper 2 Q5 - it's my weakness. can I also email you some examples that I have done so you can feedback?
@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish Oh I'm sorry - I didn't make my question clear enough. The topic is "to what extent is Macbeth PRESENTED as responsible for his downfall." - I worry this undermines the points about society because would the Jacobean audience not have similar views about violence and masculinity as is portrayed in Macbeth, at least to some extent? If that is so, how could Macbeth's downfall be PRESENTED as society's responsibility?
@@KenzyAli I see. Society in 1605 was very different to 1050 AD Scotland, when Macbeth is set. The very concept of a theatre, or a playwright, or self made business men who weren’t either members of a guild or a merchant or a soldier, would have been unthinkable in the that time, where your status was pretty much determined at birth. I could go on about the 100s of ways England was different after 1066. So yes, you could still write about society’s view differing from the society portrayed in the play.
@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish Oh alright thank you! - I just rewatched the video and you did mention that Shakespeare plays with the ideas of society being responsible, which negates my doubts as well :DD
@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish also if I use physics and maths tutor English resources on all themes and characters summaries and quotes and stuff do u think it’ll help

Great suggestion!
Can you talk about the thresholds for 2023 march like last year(u made a video on that)?Would really help.
Sir can you do those 10 quotes for a Christmas carol just like the ones you made for Macbeth
for your 5 key quotes of power and conflict. should i remember the whole quote then analyse the words within it or just remember the specific phrases/words that i analyse, as many of the quotes are very long which would make it hard to remember
Sounds as though you have answered your own question! The latter works.
When will you upload your predictions for Macbeth and JH? Thanks
2 weeks before the exam

How would the answer change if the topic was "to what extent is Macbeth responsible for his downfall?"
It is EXACTLY the same question in different words. So you wouldn’t need to change your answer at all.

@@KenzyAli Thanks for rewatching! I’m sure you will get excellent grades with this kind of determination. Let me know in August.
Is this analysis included in your revision guides?
Yes
Got a Christmas Carol and Macbeth mock on Tuesday
Any tips?
revise themes/ context and try to get quotes from themes for characters just in case
@@GermanShepherd2 ik the question but I ain’t gnna revise it cuz in GCSEs that won’t help
But i dont know where to start from for revision
Start with the themes, the author’s ideas. Make notes. Use them to write essay plans and part or whole essays
@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish right! I’ll try do that and maybe watch videos
R there any Macbeth and Christmas Carol vids form ur channel that may help me?
@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish also if I use physics and maths tutor English resources on all themes and characters summaries and quotes and stuff do u think it’ll help
Nice
