Afternoon, everyone! So, how is your holiday going? I hope you're enjoying yourself. I know some of you are probably stressed because you might be sitting exams or writing papers within the first few weeks of the new year. So let's get back to basics. How do you answer an essay question? I remember during my undergraduate my tutors drummed the importance of structure and form over and over again. Having a good structure for your essay will help you with the flow of your writing and it will make it so much easier for your tutors to understand exactly where your essay is heading.

Afternoon, everyone! Let's talk about the general election. It's just a week away and there are so many reasons why we should vote. The parties are all making so many promises and proposals for new policies. We need to get out there and decide what we want for the future.

You might even be completely disinterested in politics and the news but not voting will mean that other people will decide how your entire world is run.
