    I don't even intend to go to college, but a lot of this info is still really useful for just like, personal study :3 thanks!

    This is so good. I love the "critical parents" in your outline. So helpful.

    Thanks for your advice. I will begin in October my first English semester here in Germany. I hope that I read more English books.

    great idea! i had brilliant tutors...including malcolm bradbury, david lodge, stuart hall, richard hoggart, but i was young, ignorant and
    foolish at the time, and now have many regrets about not reading nearly enough as prep, at that time....and all those treasures that i missed
    and want now to rediscover. i really dig your energy and enthusiasm!

      Your story sounds like mine, Gillian! I count myself lucky I had such great teachers back in the day (I even sent some letters years later saying thank you), but their wisdom was mostly lost on me - many years later I have access to it and now won't waste it! And thank you for your kind words!! :)

    If only youtube had existed in 1976 and someone taught me how to study physics, I might not have quit after 1 year.

    Hi, I love your videos!! I'd really be interested in a video where you talked about why you like literature and reading! As someone who is also obsessed,, I find I can easily talk about all the books/poems/authors I like but I can never quite put into words why I like literature as a whole (because I just do)?? I would just love to hear your thoughts :)

    • @BenjaminMcEvoy
      @BenjaminMcEvoy  Před 3 lety +2

      Thank you, Hannah!! :) That's a great idea for a video. I think I talked about it a little bit in this video, 'Why I Read': czcams.com/video/sTtUkKLMhHs/video.html

    This was fascinating and I watched the entirety and may rewatch because it is so rich with info. I love how your mind works. I am currently attempting a deep dive of Virginia Woolf inspired by you. I am American with a Masters in Library and Information Science.

    I'd love to see a video on second term! I'm starting English at Cambridge next year and found this really insightful.
    Currently, really like reading Georgette Heyer's books

    • @BenjaminMcEvoy
      @BenjaminMcEvoy  Před 3 lety +3

      I can certainly do a second term video :) Ah, Georgette Heyer is delightful!

    If you haven't discussed the second term of university, I'd love for you to record a video about it. If you have, please give me the link. Thank you.

    You mentioned before setting up a reading group. Would you think about a zoom one?

    • @BenjaminMcEvoy
      @BenjaminMcEvoy  Před 3 lety +1

      Absolutely! Zoom would work well :) I should get the group up and running soon!
