ME TOO, goodluck.

This video has really helped point out a flaw of mine (my hamartia lol) that I have been doing in tests and that is I tend to drift off the question into separate ideas relating to Macbeth. This has shown me how I can expand on my ideas and attain a higher level than my past papers as I am a couple months into Year 10 which I am very thankful for, Also, an amazing depiction of Lady Macbeth and her lustful approach towards ambition, as she dominates her relationship with Macbeth using him as a pawn to maintain her facade while also attaining power. Her character is really intriguing and I really like that one quote when she talks about if she made a word to kill a baby, even if she was in the moment of its preciousness she would still go through and kill it. Terrible, I know. But this really goes to show how a innocent heart and evil mind is a great combination, I feel like I could talk about her characteristics forever. :D

This was really helpful thanks! However, when it comes to answering any question i cant think of many reasons thorougly, how do i find deep analysis of the question in the exam because, when i read the question at first i couldnt really think/see much clear evidence of the relationship until it was analysed

@FirstRateTutors

Good question! I think even before you go into the exam - you need to have some ideas of the key relationships between the characters and what you can discuss. Prior to practicing any past question map out 4/5 points you can say the main relationships (Macbeth & Lady Macbeth; Macbeth & the Witches, etc). This will make it easier to find key talking points when looking at exam questions like this.

I know I am just a year 8 student, but honestly this couldn't helpful than ever. I could 100% remember this till my GCSEs

when writing about else where in the story do you have to include exactly what act it was or can you say if it was after or before the act they give you?

@gogijox4348

8 ай бұрын

i would either provide the act and scene, or describe like where it was, for example after Banquo was killed, it’s probably better if you include both, but it’s good to at least know where it is in the play

Please can you do one for OCR please, this would really help me to develop my answer. 😀

i wish we could bring someone to help you understand the extract 😭i would definately take you to help me understand the shakespearean language

in your first paragraph in modal answer, there was the PEEL in the entire thing. For the first paragraphh, do i do a PEEL on the first bullet point of the question. Then do i do another PEEL on the second? i do get confused fairly easily so i will ask this. i got my exam tomorrow and i dont want to fail :D ( i got 3a in literature in mocks :( )

I think i now understand. The first paragraph is the PEEL of the first bullet point the second paragraph is the PEEL to the second bullet point. The third paragraph is talking about the relationship of the two in the play before the piece of extract. (the theme will be different for the new one) The fourth paragraph is talking about the relationship of the two in the play after the piece of extract. (the theme will be different for the new one) If you see this comment, please could you replay with saying im correct or if i should add anything to it ( ideally before the exam, but i dont know your timezone) Thank youu

if you write 5 paragrpahs can u still get a max grade? im doing 3 in of the extract 2 on the the text as a whole

@FirstRateTutors

If you can write 3 well developed paragraphs from the extract and 2 from elsewhere in the play (context & themes also included) then you're definitely looking at max grades

I love your content so much. Thank you for taking the time to help GCSE students. I just don't understand how these points would give you a grade 8. Aren't these points too similar and keep referencing how LM is dominant and manipulative of Macbeth (except from when Macbeth becomes distant)?

Why 5 paragraphs? People in my school have achieved grade 9 with 3 paragraphs
