Can’t wait ❤ Best wishes to everyone doing GCSE’s/ A-levels this year :)
You’ve got this 😊
Thanks, all the best to you too!
@@laurylmavunga thank you ❤
Thank you! Right now i'm thinking what should i do for GCSE English literature, because it's Animal Farm and Romeo and Juliet, which is Tomorrow, which one should i do first? and should i make key quotes from the Booklet? will i waste time on that? or go straight onto the workbook and answer questions on that?
good luck to y’all that are doing your GCSEs and a-levels :)
Good luck everyone. English lit paper 1 exam tomorrow
I'm back and my religion exam went well, thanks for all your help 🙏
Glad to hear it :-)
My GCSE’s are in two days
And yep I definitely need help in literature as I’m failing to remember the quotes
Stick to the shorter quotes, so if u have a quote u want to use thats an entire sentence u can chop it up into a word or two and analyse those words separately u get me?
Honestly your videos are amazing and so helpful, ik I may not make it to grade 9 for most of by subjects but I'm hoping that I get those grade for English Language & Literature along with French :)
This is fucking ridiculous. Why didn’t I revise beforehand 😭. Thank you so much for your vids ❤
7:15 reminds me of when I used a quote “swear not by the moon the inconsistent moon that monthly changes” and I linked it to the menstrual cycle and femininity 😭
How did you do that? What was ur question??

Someone help eng lit exam on Wednesday I still don’t know all the poems how do I learn them by the exam I have 18 poems btw. And Macbeth
paper 1 isn’t poems, it’s paper 2 😭😭 Unless your not doing AQA.
@@user-fw5fp1uj1w no I do Eduqas paper 1 is Macbeth and poetry
only learn like 6 poems u don't need to do themall
Tell me your email I will send you good resources
@@castwt omg i knew it, what would you recommend doing? i'm doing aqa love and relationships if that helps
tbh I have always struggled alot for English both Lan and Lit and I always find that in exam conditions I do way worse then my practise essays due to the fact I become nevous and my language goes out of the window. I know all the content however I find my essays are always in the middle levels due to my bad word expression. Any recommendations? I also have dyslexia so i will lose most SPAG marks
I know this sounds hard but pretend that it is a practice paper you’re doing in your house. Block out the noise and the other people and do breathing exercises. When writing, if you find that you start panicking and rushing, take a moment to recollect yourself then continue. Skim over paragraphs at the end to ensure you find mistakes and ask your friends / family to check your work to tell you your common mistakes so you’re more aware of it. At the end of the day, it’s only 4 marks for spag so also just focus on the quality of your work rather than making all the words and grammar perfect. You’ve got this 💕
I am from France only being here for 5 years and never did English before and Covid do not help and currently all my essays are a high 5 or a 6 and I really want that 6 to get into a gramar school, I honestly think that English littérature is not easy it is way too hard but tomorrow is the day and I got to do it
I hope it goes well for you! Best of luck. 🙂
hii sola, do you think that using sexiowl (including effect on reader) as a checklist instead of as a rigid structure across our lit exams will allow me to get a high grade? and if not then do you have a sort of checklist that does help make sure u include everything needed
Never heard of it but it sounds good! Using a checklist rather than a rigid structure will definitely help show some creativity! Watch my other English video for tips on what to include in ur paragraph: ruclips.net/video/amefrvEj464/видео.html
@@SmileWithSola thank youu xx
Hey what does that stand for ?
so for Macbeth and Jekyll and Hyde would 3 paragraphs in lots of detail be ok for a grade 9 so 2 on the extract 1 on the wider text and a conclusion my teacher says it has to be 4 paragraphs with 2 on the extract and 2 on the wider text and a introduction and a conclusion to get a 9 but under time pressure I probably wouldn't be able to write that much and lose my analysis and you said quality over quantity but I'm still worried that I wouldn't be able to reach a 9 if I don't write the amount the examiner wants me to write
You don't get marked based on how much you write. You could write 2-3 amazing paragraphs, linking to the extract and the wider text in the same paragraph and get a grade 9. It's all how you incorporate it and make it link back to your point and the question. Don't focus on writing pages of potentially low quality work, focus on writing high quality, deep analysis rather than rushing. You've got this and believe in yourself! If you can't write a lot, don't force it - write great quality.
@@SmileWithSola ok thank you so much for the reassurance 🤍
Hello Sola. Can you please tell me the structure you use for the 12-mark Religious Studies question? I use the PEELE structure.
I explain my 12/12 essay method in my RS video:

@@SmileWithSola thank you
Hello please someone help. I’m in year 8 i have a very important assessment coming up that determines me getting into set 1 English from set 2. We are reading a book called private peaceful and we have to explain “ how morpurgo creates a sense of tragedy in pages 14-18 of private peaceful at tommos fathers death. I have picked out 4 quotes but I’m stuck on how to explain them. My quotes are “ i have killed my own father”, “the earth thuds and thumps down on the coffin behind us as we drift away leaving him” , “ if only I had tried to save myelf, if I had run he would not now be lying dead in his coffin” and (what I think is my best quote) “i want father to hear the birds for the last time before the earth closes in on top of him and he has nothing left but science” SOMEONE PLEASE GUIDE AND HELP ME. What language techniques do the quotes show and how can I explain this in detail to get the best mark possible. PLEASE SOMEONE!.
Does anyone know any good quotes for Eva smith on an inspector calls
eva smith has no spoken lines so any characters speaking about her would be good to reference like mrs birling saying 'girls of that class' repeatedly when referring to eva smith. also, the inspector has a lot of lines referring to her death
@@jessssnake thank you, I think this years question might be on Mrs Birling because she has not came up yet
she's dehumanised a lot by being called a 'good worker', a 'good sport', and just 'the girl' and 'a girl', making her less of a character to the birlings, but a concept or idea
is it possible to cram for english lit? if so, how would i do it? I actually don't think theres hope for me at this point
Write down important quotes that cover a lot of themes and characters. Blurt these out. Watch videos on context and overviews of the different novels / plays and try your best to understand them. Generate random questions and blurt your answers then search online and add the missing parts you forgot. Try your best, you've got this
arent thesis/intro something that puts ur grade up? ive been told by my teacher and grade9 analysis videos to always start with a thesis 4:28
It depends on person to person, I like to jump straight into the paragraphs and talk about my point immediately then start analysing so I don't waste time trying to make my intro sound good. Other people prefer writing an intro, and there's no harm in doing that so long as you don't waste time.
I have problems with making the things in my paragraphs flow
Like all my sentences is
This means that..
this is significant
THIS .. THIS.. THIS..
pleaseeee someone help me what should I do
I only know further more and in addition
Have you tried using
Contrastingly
Connotes to
Portraying?
IDK, because I just spam furthermore and moreover
Try use ‘which’ instead if you think you are being repetitive! like “which signifies” “which illustrates’ ‘which alludes’
I use "However" when there's an opposite argument when I talk about two opposing things
4:20 wait do we actually not have to do an intro?? whaaaaat
How many paragraphs do i do????
2 to 3 paragraphs
@@cryingthrowingup4256 never mind I did the exam today, I did 4 para for each: 2 on extract, 2 on else where
@@Jessieberryy oh well done, i only did 3 for macbeth and 1 and a half for jekyll and hyde
thesis statements are important, no?
yes, that is what I referred to as your point which answers the question. you can include this at the start of your paragraph
@@SmileWithSola ah okay thanks
btw your title says GSCE when its supposed to be GCSE
Thanksss 💕
none of this helped and i ended up failing
omg got my exam tomorrow this was a much needed video because I’ve always been hesitant on english lit because of time pressure and thinking about what to write since it takes me ages to develop a good para and then i start crossing things out because i believe i got a new more sophisticated word or idea, I’ve been getting grade5’s in my mocks but after seeing this video my confidence has gone up and im now aiming if not a 9 then a 7 atleast, you’re acc a lifesaver sola my mum found your videos for me and they’ve been helping me since forever girl🤍
do not lose hope or despair a family member of mine had a grade 2-3 in the english mock and ended up getting a 7 in lit and a 6 in lang! she told me she only used around 4 quotes in one of her essays
Also can anybody please give me feedback on this short essay about macbeth (its incomplete) it would be much appreciated
In the tragic play Macbeth, Shakespeare employs Macbeth as a violent character who is determined to gain power even if that means through corruption, linking to the idea of Macbeth’s biggest flaw being gluttony; the desire to have more just to satisfy his “vaulting ambition”. This has corrupted macbeths innocence, turning him into an intemperate villain who has caused nothing but blood, sweat and tears amongst others so that he could fulfill his selfish needs.
At the beginning of the play, Macbeth is seen fighting enemies as he “smok’d with bloody execution”, giving connotations of masculinity and bravery that was widely encouraged and praised during the Jacobean Era. The words “smok’d” and “execution” highlights how heroic Macbeth is towards defending his land and people as well as the king, which was seen as being incredibly honorable. The adjective “bloody” shows how brutal and tyrannical Macbeth is, which also suggests how protective he is over the king, showing the audience that he has some sense of comradeship and loyalty within him as he would also “ne’er shake hands, nor bade farewell” to his enemies. This quotation paints Macbeth as being a dedicated person to his king and also shows a sense of respect he has for him as he would never shake the hands of an enemy, which would come under the ruling of Lèse-majesté - a term used for those who would go against the monarchy or cause offence.
As the play progresses, Macbeths gluttinous desire for power becomes more apparent as he turns more violent. In Act 2 of the play, Macbeth can be seen committing the crime of Regicide; a huge crime that is extremely sinful and believed to earn you a place in Hellfire as a Punnishment from God, as it is mentioned in the Bible that “thou shalt not kill” - especially a king. Before he has committed the deed, an owl can be seen shrieking, which is symbolism and a foreshadowing of misfortune and danger. It also alludes to the idea of macbeth being doomed as he is now trapped within the witches prophecies, and will end up having it turn back on him, which was could have been Shakespeare’s way of warning the audience not to go against the king or you will have it backfire onto you.
It’s pretty good, well done. Just something generic, add it specific techniques overall, such as metaphors, personification etc. talk about the point conceptually, before drilling into analysis and context. Focus on multiple interpretations for one quote or ref as this could strengthen you point even more, but only when it’s relevant. I like that you know good context of the play with your numerous quotes too. Keep it up!
Honestly, your videos are really helpful and they make me feel confident about my igcses so thank you sm. ALSO GOOD LUCK to anyone doing their exams- we can do this guys🥲
that paper was a godsend 🤌🤌 (aqa)
