English Language A Level Help!!

I'm currently in term 2 of A2 and I really feel like English is the most difficult subject; I missed a term of school which is where my class covered the language levels and frameworks! I have done independent study but I feel like I'm lacking in this area. For my Year 12 mock, I got a C, but my revised grade is an A (I don't know how that's even allowed, I get imposter syndrome just thinking about it)
Anyway, I just need some tips on how to improve my analysis techniques ASAP. How do you guys approach analysis? More Specifically, questions 1-3 in Paper 1. How do you remember the terminology and apply it? Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated. xx

Hi, thank you so much, appreciate it. I think that reading exemplar responses is a good way to revise but since Eng Lang is not as popular, its hard to get model essays.
