1. Redraft your essay to get rid of all the words you don't need and still make sense.
2. Visit the exam board website, and use the indicative comment in the mark scheme.
3. Use the search Q in my channel to find all the videos on a topic or character you are revising.
4. Write an essay using these techniques and post it as a comment on my videos for me to look at.
