Transcript
00:00 some f***ing appalling mistakes.
00:02 Some absolute dog shit.
00:04 Whitechapel is not an Indigenous Australian.
00:06 Three of you did that.
00:08 Seven Stages was not written during the LA riots.
00:12 It's written in Australia in the mid-90s.
00:15 20 years after the LA riots.
00:17 Diangla is not writing about the struggles of First Nations Australians,
00:20 as some of you have twice.
00:22 He's not writing about Indigenous Americans.
00:25 Do you know who Indigenous Americans are?
00:27 Is Whitechapel a f***ing Indigenous American?
00:31 I'm not joking!
00:33 No, First Nations people in America are Native American Indians.
00:37 They're not African Americans!
00:41 African!
00:43 It's the first part!
00:45 They are not native to America, as some of you tried to point out.
00:49 Sort that shit out. That sucks. Get rid of that.
00:51 That f***s up your essay so bad.
00:53 General statements. Most of them are shit.
00:55 I'm going to show you some good ones in a minute.
00:57 They're so f***ing shit. They're so valid.

01:01 We're going to sort them out.
01:03 Start men strong.
01:05 If your essay starts crap,
01:07 guess how I'm going to feel about it as I'm reading it.
01:09 It's exactly how I'm going to feel.
01:13 If you score a 7 or a 5,
01:15 your structures are all over the place.
01:17 These are not optional for you.
01:19 You have to be following these.
01:21 Some of you might have been peeing until you actually wrote good essays
01:23 This is maybe not so much for you.
01:25 But generally if you finished your essay and you're scoring below 35,
01:27 you've got to be doing these things.
01:29 These are your opportunities to compare
01:31 and some of you aren't doing that right now.
01:33 Some of you don't know the quotations.
01:35 It's so f***ing obvious.
01:37 You're quoting just like, shit.
01:39 Some of you are quoting characters' names.
01:41 Sort it out. Learn your flashcards.
01:43 I can't learn them for you.
01:45 If that's you, and it's a few of you,
01:47 let me tell you, if you don't know your flashcards,
