How can this resource be useful to students and teachers?
It provides accurate and detailed knowledge of the play, as well as examples of complex language with a wide range of vocabulary. Students can re-write the essay adding short linking expressions or conjunctions (also included in the resource). A highly effective way of using this essay is to create flashcards or a mind map, in order to support with revision and enhance knowledge and memory retention.
Why is complex language not demonstrated using different tenses?
Students should be reminded that the present indicative and subjunctives are the most appropriate register for this style of essay. Complex language can be shown through, for example, subordinate clauses, formation of regular and irregular verbs, use of impersonal expressions, value judgements, verb + infinitive (+ preposition) expressions, etc.
Why is there no introduction?
It is not essential to write an introduction. It is perfectly acceptable to go straight into the first point as there are no marks awarded for structure. A short or no introduction which delves straight into the essay is preferable, as it saves time without losing marks.
