omg pls share your tips for englsih😭

It's really simple,
It works for both Lit and Lang (more for lit but can use for lang extract questions), Just follow this formula per paragraph,
P: Point (rewrite the question)
E: Evidence (add a quote)
T: Technique (technique you find in the quote such as smilie, hyperbole ect)
E: Effect/Explain (explain what effect the technique as in the quote - what does the technique do?, why is it there?
R: Relate (link your point to context or something the writer is trying to convey through their work)

A quick example paragraph,
"Explore how Shakespeare presents Lady Macbeth’s change of power and control in Macbeth"

Shakespeare deliberately presents Lady Macbeth (LM) as a character with dynamic power and control shifts in Macbeth. This is evidently seen in the quote "Out, damned spot! out, I say!." The imperative repetition of the adverb 'out' implies LM's authority deteriorating as here she is desperately commanding a tiny, imaginative spot, however in Act 2 she is seen to command Macbeth with more authority "Then you were a man." This contrast highlights her loss of immense power and control. Shakespeare does this to warn audiances not to cross the Great Chain of Being. Suggesting that those who disrupt divine order, as LM does, are doomed to suffer tragic consequences.

I have underlined where PETER has been shown and some good points (like how I refered to another part of the text is really good as it shows variety and understanding.)
A lot of people think the more you write = more marks but its more about the quality (how you think and present your point), knowledge (quotes and techniques and context) and perceptiveness (unique ideas). PETER just helps you do that without writing loads and loads.
