CSEC English A Paper 02 Summary Writing: How to Paraphrase Like a Pro

Thirty marks on Paper 02 come from summary writing, and almost nobody practises it.

Includes a paraphrasing drill, five common mistakes shown in a real student answer, and how to trim when you're over the limit. 0:00 Intro 0:26 Why summaries matter 0:51 What examiners want 1:13 How the 10 marks work 1:42 Read the instruction 2:18 The 5-step method 2:54 Worked example 4:47 Saying it in your own words 5:24 The final summary 6:03 Spot the mistakes 6:39 Trimming to the limit 7:01 Your turn 7:40 Quick-fire check 8:30 Recap Post your 20-word summary in the comments.
