I've been binging your videos and done countless past papers with your advice. Thank you so much for uploading as you're quite literally the only (and best) cambridge teacher on youtube
Hey as I person who have watched your videos for years , I think you look good lately you are in a good shape. Just want to compliment you tho I don’t have any other intentions. And I really do appreciate your hard work.
I watched your other video on writers craft, and my god, did it help i only wish i saw this video as well, and then i would definitely have gotten an A* confirmed
Hey IGCSESUCESS! Omds you're not gonna believe it but I actually got an A* in IGCSE English. I wrote the May/June series and I watched your videos so often to master text types and essential paper 1 skills. I especially loved your final video on writer's effect and I often recommend you to my juniors at school. Thank you so much for the creative and educative content you produce!
You're my fav english teacher!! I stumbled upon this goldmine just two days ago, and you have already cleared many of my doubts! I hope I will do well, with your help, in the upcoming english exam that is tomorrow.
this came just in time you’re a saviour!! Small question though, does the structure of the analysis matter much? Would I score higher if I followed a structure similar to yours?
There’s flexibility. Just make sure you zoom in and explore the explicit and implicit meaning of words and phrases. My structure is simply a suggestion so important steps aren’t missed out!
really important question here . if go over the word limit of 300 by lets say 100 150 words are your marks deducted or does the examiner straight up does not read ur answer plzzz reply ... much love
Hiiiii IGCSESUCCESS! I love your videos so much. If you see this message, could you please answer this question. If I suggest an implicit idea, and it’s not on the mark scheme, do I still get marks or not?🤗
for the response structure, do we have to use all of the points? Or is it optional? And will we lose marks if we use the same straters for every quote?
for the "overall effect of the language creates an image of...", is there any tricks you have that helps find this overall effect during the exam from any text?
Use the information after the ellipsis.. read the paragraphs carefully. Then, formulate your topic sentence by using key information after the ellipsis from the q- inc. a relevant adjective or abstract noun. E.g. The overall effect of the language creates an image of the writer’s desperation as they grapple with the sheer amount of revision they have to do.
@@IGCSESUCCESS thankyou for all your help!!! Tomorow is my exam, and after watching a lot of your videos I think i am not that nervous about the exam anymore!!!
In paper 12, the word limit of your word response is about 400 words but the word limit is from 200-300 words and my teachers tells me that sny thing above the word limit won't be marked.. please tell what to do
Umm, I wish teachers would stop telling their students this. Every word you write gets read and marked… it doesn’t simply get ignored and you don’t get penalised for going out the word count. Providing you stay nice and focused, you’ll be fine :)!
Sir, is it ok that I learned some of ur sentences and change some features in my writing for tmr exam? i'm afraid i'll be penalised for copying others' phrases
Alot of the words you learn are used in certain contexts only. For example, the word 'hot' can be used both to describe a good looking person and to imply that something is of a high temperature. And one more thing: just read. Reading will allow you to adopt a certain style, develop your grammar and you'll pick up countless idioms and vocabularies- and you'll learn which context to use them best in.
There will always be more than three options- try choose an image in which the vocab is familiar too you. Failing that, try and use context clues to figure out what the writer is trying to suggest. Implicit meaning is the most important.
1. 8 explicit ideas 2. Stick to the word count 3. If asked to summarise two things, feel free to write two smaller paragraphs 4. Use a range of connectives 5. Third person 6. Use complex sentences 7. Group similar ideas together - you should never just had one idea in one sentence - aim for two or three.
Thank you so much sir. You are not just helping IGCSE students, but overall the o-levels students from all over the world. Our exam has been updated to match the IGCSE from 2024 and the most daunting change was the writer’s effect. Prayers for your success, sir. Huge respect from Pakistan.
you are absolutely right! i guess i was just all worked up..i am predicted to get an A* for english but i just dont feel confident enough. I feel like my vocabulary needs working- the english exam is not so far away@@IGCSESUCCESS
also can you please make a video explaining different sentence structures that we should use for summary and extended response? it would be very helpful. @@IGCSESUCCESS

Are your slides or resources available to purchase anywhere?
this came just in time you’re a saviour!! Small question though, does the structure of the analysis matter much? Would I score higher if I followed a structure similar to yours?

yes please
Thank you soo much sir. I got an A in IGCSE english. Just by watching your videos
Amazing! Well done ⭐️
really important question here . if go over the word limit of 300 by lets say 100 150 words are your marks deducted or does the examiner straight up does not read ur answer plzzz reply ... much love
Hiiiii IGCSESUCCESS! I love your videos so much. If you see this message, could you please answer this question. If I suggest an implicit idea, and it’s not on the mark scheme, do I still get marks or not?🤗
Absolutely! Well, providing it’s relevant!
@@IGCSESUCCESS thanks so much ☺️
doing my English Language GCSE today, best of luck for me🙏
for the response structure, do we have to use all of the points?
Or is it optional? And will we lose marks if we use the same straters for every quote?
No, just make sure you use a kinda point, evidence, zoom in, analyse ‘structure’
for the "overall effect of the language creates an image of...", is there any tricks you have that helps find this overall effect during the exam from any text?
Use the information after the ellipsis.. read the paragraphs carefully. Then, formulate your topic sentence by using key information after the ellipsis from the q- inc. a relevant adjective or abstract noun.
E.g. The overall effect of the language creates an image of the writer’s desperation as they grapple with the sheer amount of revision they have to do.
@@IGCSESUCCESS thankyou for all your help!!! Tomorow is my exam, and after watching a lot of your videos I think i am not that nervous about the exam anymore!!!
For the writer's effect question, could we go deep and assume what the explicit meaning conveys while doing the implicit meaning analysis?
The explicit meaning requires no deep exploration. The word/phrase means…. Then you go on to your implicit exploration.
do we have to add paragraph or its fine?
In paper 12, the word limit of your word response is about 400 words but the word limit is from 200-300 words and my teachers tells me that sny thing above the word limit won't be marked.. please tell what to do
Umm, I wish teachers would stop telling their students this. Every word you write gets read and marked… it doesn’t simply get ignored and you don’t get penalised for going out the word count. Providing you stay nice and focused, you’ll be fine :)!
what does zoom in mean ?
Amazing video
Perfect
Do you do these videos for Pearson Edexcel papers?😊
You may have just rescued my p1 from a deep depressing place
paper 1 in 2 hours🥶🥶
Gooooooood luck!!!!! 🍀
Finally 😂...its been 2 months
Extended break 🥹
I’ve made it to the violinist 💪
Actual Good Timing XD
Sir, is it ok that I learned some of ur sentences and change some features in my writing for tmr exam? i'm afraid i'll be penalised for copying others' phrases
That’s fine!
My test is tmr and I’ve got it with physics so I haven’t got time to study 😢
aside from learning new words, how can I be more articulate in my writing so my paragraphs are more vocabulary-rich?
Alot of the words you learn are used in certain contexts only. For example, the word 'hot' can be used both to describe a good looking person and to imply that something is of a high temperature.
And one more thing: just read. Reading will allow you to adopt a certain style, develop your grammar and you'll pick up countless idioms and vocabularies- and you'll learn which context to use them best in.
i thought going over word counts deducts marks
Uploaded the Useful stuff of all time😂
Can you upload pdf
sorry i just deleted the comment on the timing because i saw your shorts with all the timings!
what if our handwriting is huge and writing a lot will mean i need extra sheets? is it recommended to use additional sheets?
Extra sheets are always available.
So is the purple pretty much describing what the quote means
Exactly!
I love you man
HI I GOT EL PAPER 1 TOMORROW PLS WISH ME LUCKKK!!!
Best of luck!!🤞
sir can you make a video on directed writing paper 1
Will be ready in the next few days
Hello sir, can you please solve igcse feb/march 2024 🙏
What do we do when a word or phrase is the only option but don’t know its meanings
There will always be more than three options- try choose an image in which the vocab is familiar too you. Failing that, try and use context clues to figure out what the writer is trying to suggest. Implicit meaning is the most important.
Thank you so much tomorrow is my paper 1
How many paragraph do I have to write in total
Do I need a conclusion?? PLS REPLY INHABE EXAM TOMORROW
Two paragraphs… three quotes in each. No conclusion.
Where have you been sir?
Had to move houses unexpectedly and a lot going on with life!
@@IGCSESUCCESS hope everything gets sorted out soon. Take care and keep posting ❣
Exam in just few dayssss . Gonna dieee😭😭😭
You’ve got this!
Tmr😭🙏
Share quick points on summary please .
1. 8 explicit ideas
2. Stick to the word count
3. If asked to summarise two things, feel free to write two smaller paragraphs
4. Use a range of connectives
5. Third person
6. Use complex sentences
7. Group similar ideas together - you should never just had one idea in one sentence - aim for two or three.

i just had my exam on sunday 😞😞
Hope it went okay!
i made it to the violinist BTW
Woohooo!!
your choice of words are sometime so difficult to understand- i wish you use a relatively simpler vocab
You can look them up and expand your vocabulary. If you are never exposed to more ambitious vocabulary, how does one improve ? Hmm. 🤔
you are absolutely right! i guess i was just all worked up..i am predicted to get an A* for english but i just dont feel confident enough. I feel like my vocabulary needs working- the english exam is not so far away@@IGCSESUCCESS
