i live in Malaysia and my IGCSE English exam is tomorrow. Whatever grade i get is because of you kind sir, I love the way u calmly explain everything, although there are'nt enough directed writing for paper 2, its 40 marks and deserved lot of attention, anyways i appreciate all that you''ve done for all of us, much love!
thank you so much, i have been struggling with the cambridge english curriculum for the longest time, especially with this question. But this has revolutionised my thinking process and how i go about answering these questions.
Țhank you iGCSESuccess for making such great videos our teacher’s always make us watch your videos and you are the only TH-cam channel i prefer for English videos Tysm for this once again
Thank you for the extremely helpful content! Subscribed and can't wait for the new videos, you have made it simple and easy, yet at the same time effective and understandable.
Thanks a lot sir! With help of your this video I have secured 14 in 15( 1 marks were deducted for a grammatical mistake made by me) for the writer's effect question for which I earlier scored only 6. Thanks a ton sir!😊🤗
Thank u for this video!!!! Tysm!! This helps a lot!! I got a english exam tomorrow... And I still needed some clarity in writers effect... So. Thank you 💜💜💜
Since they want us to find 6 effects from 2 paragraphs, write 3 effects of the first paragraph in one paragraph and the other 3 in another separate paragraph, so you should have 2 paragraphs
Hello, thank you very much for the video. The literary present tense is *only* used for fictional texts, yes? Histoircal accounts are discussed in the past tense, although non-fictional texts aren't used for this question in the paper. Thank you!
Hi dear, thanks for sharing the video Extremely helpful I love the STEPS, it is really great to elucidate the students about it. Highly appreciated!! I have a question: Isn't analysing punctuation a structural analysis?
@@IGCSESUCCESS thanks a lot for clearing the doubt cloud, I am so so so much grateful to you dear. Many thanks for your prompt response! God bless you boss
Thank you, it was quite a helpful video. However I'd like to clarify whether it is okay to end each paragraph with the explanation of the final phrase/ word or is it necessary for one to conclude each paragraph by summarising the info given? Eg: the effect of using the choice of words has been created by...
If you wanted to provide the overall effect at the end instead of the beginning that's alright... It's clear to see that, from the aforementioned examples, the writer is trying to create an image of the character's xxxxxxxxxx. How you've expressed it is also fine :)!
you're really good at english, great job explaining everything. This topic is really confusing to me though so i didn't fully understand it yet, i might have to watch it again. do you have any updated videos about this topic?
No, but having marked for an exam board before, we truly do appreciate clear handwriting. If handwriting is completely illegible, credit won't be given. Markers also don't have hours to spend deciphering handwriting!
It was really nice and helpful but for next time can you not put the background music, please!! I know you did it to make it better but for some students it's distracting, anyways it was fabulous.
If I have to write on 2 paragraphs and therefore, 300 words, how will my introduction and conclusion of the whole answer look like and what should it include?
150 words per paragraph ideally. No intro or conclusion as such. But, establish the overall effect in your topic sentence sentence. Couple of inferences per image. See my videos for further guidance.
hey , this video helped alot but can you do a video explaning this question "how does the writer use language to convey meaning and create effect " i was trying to find videos to explain this question but i couldn't find :( It would be really helpful if you can explain this question
I am going to sit for Edexcel IGCSE English on Ist November but I couldn’t get time to take a good preparation.Please help me to find a easy way to answer question 4 in 4EA1.
Heyy IGCSESUCCESS, I have a question. Usually when I answer writer's effect questions I explain the meaning and the image that comes to my mind as I read the phrase/word. I also talk about the feelings evoked from the passage as well as how it makes me (the reader) feel. Is that a good way to approach the question?
Hello there, this is a very useful video. But I have one question, say we use foreshadowing as a technique to comment on. Can we refer to the event even if it is outside the paragraph?
Yes, of course! It's always impressive when students can use quotations effectively and accuratively... Embedding them and sustaining a literacy present voice helps achieve this.
Didn't reread what I said before sending so here is what I meant to say. Thanks, I really appreciate you getting back to me before the exams tomorrow. You have helped me become better at English with your amazing videos.
please could you do a video on how to write with less words? I just switched over to IGCSE and i am not used to writing with word limits, let alone such a small word limits! I am terrible at keeping under the limit and finding how to say everything i need to say in such a small amount of space (sorry if you already have and ive just missed it lol) :)
Wait do you not give a dictionary definition of the powerful words? What I usually do is write my phrase down, identify the imagery technique used, define the powerful words and then give connotations and then suggestions.
I guess that is one way of looking at different layers of meaning. But it is not a requirement. I've taught it this way for many years and have had many students come away with A*s :)!
I was watched a video saying that there will be some poetry involved in IGCSE first language English paper 2 . Is this correct ? I thought poetry would have only been involved on the literature paper and im stressing because I haven't been revising poetry as Im not doing literature . Can someone please answer this ? 😭
@@IGCSESUCCESS thank u so much for your response !well I watched tutor4u ( I think that’s the channel’s name ) and she said that on IGCSE paper 2 it’s the prose fiction and poetry part but it also said exexel IGCSE .

Sure :) I mean, you can use the word quote, but it makes your writing a little choppy. You wouldn't lose marks for it :) it's just something us English teachers dislike 😅
