      Stop thinking that people are stupid. Those who are are the ones watching your videos and enjoying them. Do not annunciate and explain carefully what a word or a phrase means: if people do not know what the hell you are talking about they can search it up. It takes three seconds to say, ‘Today’s lesson is on an English authors’, but You chose to dwell on it for more than 8 or so seconds. I do not feel bad that less people are watching you, you deserve it.

    Dear Ma'am Gill,
    This was a fantastic lesson with the caption " Famous Quotations From Charles Dickens !"
    Amongst these novels Great Expectations and David Copperfield are very well known to the readers.
    The quotations perhaps help us to relate well to the content of the book and give us quite an enriched feeling !
    Thanks for coming up with these wonderful quotations, which are true to all times !😊

    Merry Christmas Gill! A Christmas Carol, David Coperfield, are my favourites. He wrote on so many topics, and as you read some qoutations from his booka, I thought, oh me, oh my, isn't that strange, that they mean the same today as they did in those days. I guess, their thoughts made the world richer my many ways. I read Charles Dickens in the Senior Classes in School with a very well read Teacher.

    Charles Dickens is an artist to have been drawing the pictures not applying the paints but the words. To render the brightness for his narratives he often used the language of not educated people whereas it has turned out to be necessary. It was difficult for me as not native speaker to make out what they had spoken.
