@@AdanAzhar first u have to know the type of questions that will come in both papers and the structure of the answers which is all stated rlly well in the video. u could watch this video and another one on paper 2, then I suggest u do a past paper and time yourself. you should also study the different types of writing styles that may come like article writing, interview writing, summary, etc.

Hi! I just had my exam this week and I wanted to thank you. I've gotten such clarity on this and the directed writing. Your video series has exponentially increased my grades and I'm so grateful that you do this for us despite being a literal teacher. I hope you have a great day!

[@kashvi1225]

[@Taughtly]

Such a lovely comment and so nice of you to recognise how busy I am hahaah. Best of luck with your results!

[@abigailanna7910]

Can't believe how simple you have made the writer's effects. Will they really not penalise you for having such a predictable outline like the one you've given? Thank you so much for making this available. Just amazing.

[@Taughtly]

Thank you! Nope, they don't penalise for being formulaic because it's marked in the same manner. As an examiner, honestly I love it when a student ticks off in order what's on my mark scheme - makes the job easier!

[@peakdon1]

Can you please create a video on Paper 2 tips, these are tremendously helpful. Thank you!

[@Taughtly]

I'm so glad you find them useful. Thank you! Yes, a Paper 2 explained is most definitely on the to-do list. In the meantime I do have videos about narrative and descriptive writing.

Good luck with your mocks! 🌟 Best advice - keep a close eye on the timings. Too many of my students go very slowly then only have fifteen mins left for question 3, which is the juiciest question. If you're also doing Paper 2 for your mock, I have a video about that coming out today 👀

[@Sanan10]

Hey! I'm very curious to ask. There was a talk question in P1 and I followed the Format of speech/article mix and applied diff techniques. Although everything went well but I gave a journal heading at top and started with date. How much marks will get deducted?

[@Taughtly]

Hard to answer that without seeing your paper. You likely lost a couple of marks at least for appropriate register, but remember that register is only one element of the writing mark scheme. You also get marked on your vocabulary, clarity and flow of your language so it shouldn't destroy your overall score hopefully!

[@Sanan10]

​@@Taughtlyyeah like I followed the format of speech but didn't end with a thank you, instead gave a polite ending but yeah more than 5 marks can be deducted for just writing a journal at top and starting with a date?

[@Sanan10]

And yes I won't lose my 15 marks of content points, right?

Not right now. I'm focusing on IGCSE Poetry and making teaching units for IGCSE Writing right now, then from September I will be branching out a little.

[@Mike-fr4qn]

What happens if the question asks for advantages only but I add advantages and disadvantages? For the summary question.

[@Taughtly]

In that case you'd likely lose marks for excess material sadly.

[@MindsetMastery1234-q2q]

thank you for a very helpful video

[@HannahLAVER09R]

Hi Sarah, for question 3 (Directed writing question), to get the 'details' points, are we allowed to copy from the text? Thanks Sarah for the encouraging video!

[@Taughtly]

Hi Hannah :) I would recommend that you try to use your own words as much as possible. You do lose marks for "lifted material" on the writing mark scheme (directly copied words/phrases). Especially once you're copying phrases of 3+ words, it would start to pull down your mark. Of course, there are some very precise words that you can't really use a synonym for, like "table". You wouldn't change it to "console", "cabinet" or "four-legged piece of furniture". So in this case, it's okay to copy occasional words that are so specific you can't really reword them. If you want, I have a free paraphrasing lesson that explains different methods of rewriting using your own words. It's only available on my website. You do need to sign up but no need to enter any payment details etc to access: taughtly.co.uk/courses/igcse-first-language-english-paper-1-and-paper-2-revision-course/ You can find that lesson on Summary Writing > Taughtly Exclusive: Paraphrasing Video Lesson

[@aaditsirohiya3892]

I just have a doubt in Q2d).So example if we are unable to find 3 images from each paragraph is it allowed to use other phrases to answer the question?

[@Taughtly]

Hi there! Good question. You should only select three images from the paragraphs you have been given. This is because the examiner can only credit the quotes on the mark scheme, so if you quote from elsewhere then your answer definitely won't be on the mark scheme. So you should pick three images from each paragraph strictly and not quote from elsewhere in the extract. Hope this helps! ☺
