thank you Sanjay whoever and wherever you are. You are so helpful and kind to share the work you put so much hard work and dedication into. Very much appreciated and not taken lightly
When he said avoid suspicion. I think this is talking about how Shakespeare was suspected to be part of the gunpowder plot, and he wrote Macbeth to be placed on the kings good side and avoid suspicion surrounding him and the plot as he was friends with people involved at the time, he wrote the play to show he was devoted to the king
I'll be honest. I didn't revise English once but got (sometimes nearly) full marks on every essay. Straight 9s. I think the way you have structured this video is very well done :)
This was so helpful, I have my exam in a couple days and we've only just started Macbeth so this has helped me gain advanced terminology, contextual references and good points and links. I will definitely be coming back to watch more of your videos!
I've been watching your videos just so I could begin a rota for revision, and I got 28/34 on my last exam! I'm in year 10, and I'm super happy with my result
Hi sir, I’m currently in year 10 however I’m doing a test tomorrow which will affect my year 11 mock mock test grade next year, so I’m really stressing ,but this video is giving me so much useful points to take in . I’m very thankful and hopefully this will help me tomorrow ✊🏻 Thanks again.
Hi, Mr Salles. Im in year 10 and I've been watching your videos for a year now and you've helped me achieve a grade 9 in English (74/80) thank you so much sir!!!!!!

Sir I am a literature student in India. We have drama as one of our core paper and we have to study the whole play of macbeth for our this semester. Literally I didn't had any Idea to how to link my ideas and interpretations chronologically.

I am really fascinated by your classes, because it made me to think the basic ideas and quotations in the from a very different perspective. Thank you sir for uploading these videos🙏🏼😊.

There is only one bit of advice - practise writing under timed conditions, and you will get quicker. If thinking fast is the problem, practise dictating.

No, if you use this context to argue for particular interpretations, that will be fine. Make sure you understand the critical theories though, as examiners find that students usually apply them incorrectly

Hi sir can you have a look at this thesis for Lady Macbeth: In the archetypical propaganda play 'Macbeth', Shakespeare powerfully constructs the deateragonist Lady Macbeth as an unwillingly determined character to cataclyse Macbeth's downfall in order to make an ironic statement that women also have freedom (which was of course very unexpected in this patriarchal society because they wasn't able to vote) and was seen as rather entertaining for a Jacobean audience seeing the performance at the globe.

@@user.004 read a wide range of books not that it would help you considering the English literature paper two exams tomorrow But in one year have you managed to improve your vernacular
Hi sir , in my school they tell us to do 3 PEE paragraphs with 3 quotes from the extract then link two of the quotes referencing to another part of the text having the same idea.When i have been watching the grade 9 videos they don't do that.Do you suggest that i do the schools method or should i do a paragraph for each AO like in this video to get top marks?
Your school is trying to teach a method which will cover all bases - so it sounds logical. Because teachers usually don't sit the exams themselves, they don't road test this to see if it is actually successful - usually it ends up with having to write too much. The only way for you to find out is to write an essay using what you have learned, and see what grade you get, compared to the 'method'.

@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish So if you hit Level 6 on just one of the AO's does that tip you into that level?
I am new to the UK, I was wondering if you can choose your Shakespearean play for paper 1 or if it is assigned to you by the exam.
Each exam board offers a range of about 3-5. Go to their past papers to find which.
Your school chooses it
@@shekhinahasumah1234 when you school chooses it, do you mean they choose the specific play, or like the comment above, do you mean the exam board will choose 3-5 specific plays and then you get to chose one of them
@@조현민-r5u yes the exam boards give options and you school from that
@@shekhinahasumah1234 does that mean you only need to study one play?
Do you need to conclude? My teacher told us that it’s not necessary?
Hi sir can you have a look at this thesis for Lady Macbeth: In the archetypical propaganda play 'Macbeth', Shakespeare powerfully constructs the deateragonist Lady Macbeth as an unwillingly determined character to cataclyse Macbeth's downfall in order to make an ironic statement that women also have freedom (which was of course very unexpected in this patriarchal society because they wasn't able to vote) and was seen as rather entertaining for a Jacobean audience seeing the performance at the globe.
Too many ideas grouped together in one sentence
hi sir im commenting this while watching the video. i've noticed that the person who has produced this piece uses high vocabulary and exquisite analysis something i cant do right now. is there something you recommend to improve my analytical skills and vocab?
I don’t think it makes much of a difference as long as you have a strong and convincing argument ‘fancy’ words aren’t that important
@@milksky9876 oh thanks I’m just really bad at English and trying to find ways to improve
@@user.004 read a wide range of books not that it would help you considering the English literature paper two exams tomorrow
But in one year have you managed to improve your vernacular
@@Unndecided Hiya I finished my GCSES last year haha x
@@user.004 how did you do?
Hi sir , in my school they tell us to do 3 PEE paragraphs with 3 quotes from the extract then link two of the quotes referencing to another part of the text having the same idea.When i have been watching the grade 9 videos they don't do that.Do you suggest that i do the schools method or should i do a paragraph for each AO like in this video to get top marks?
Your school is trying to teach a method which will cover all bases - so it sounds logical. Because teachers usually don't sit the exams themselves, they don't road test this to see if it is actually successful - usually it ends up with having to write too much. The only way for you to find out is to write an essay using what you have learned, and see what grade you get, compared to the 'method'.
I'm struggling to get level 3🥺
