edexcel literature, May/June session, help!

This site was recommended to me by a friend, and needless to say it came in a time of despair :frown:
I'm setting my exam on 22 May and my teacher is, just, the worst in the world.
She has never solved any past papers with us and all she does is give us a quiz that lasts the whole class (3 hours) and never collects the papers afterwards or even marks them.
I have sent her several writings before and asked for a grade and she says she forgot!!
I message her occasionally and every single times she does not answer :smile:??
She barely acts like a teacher and is genuinely only making me panic because I have not been graded once on my writings and I have no clue if what I'm doing could get me an A*.

I am studying Of Mice And Men and An Inspector Calls, if anyone can just solve my problem and find someone to grade my writings!! That'd be tremendously nice.

Just use Mr Salles and Mr Bruff plus get the relevant books. Ask another teacher nicely or get a tutor., even hire a poor English grad/ student.

Mr Bruff for English and that would ease your chances with everything else.

Thank you! I do follow Mr. Salles but I find he rarely ever replied. Though he is of great help. And i can't ask any other teachers, as we have literally two literature teachers at school, and in order to just 'ask' the other teacher I have to pay to contact her. It's a lot.

Look at the exemplars and follow the mark schemes.
Think Mr Salles will be busy.
