'An Inspector Calls': Sheila Character Analysis (animated)

Aku ingat pasal inspector Sheila

Ur videos are very useful and helpful😁

L

I just want to say thank you so much for ur vids in my mock last year I got a grade 3 and in my mock this year I got a 6 ur vids help me a lot :)

can anyone find the video about gender in an inspector calls?? or has it been taken down :((((

An Inspector Calls is set in 1912.

The First World War is yet to start. Birling's view that "the Germans don't want war," is known to be incorrect by all audience members as the play wasn't performed until 1946.

The Titanic was in production but hadn't begun its ill-fated maiden voyage.

There was a patriarchal society - men - were seen as more powerful than women. Women were seen as cheap labour, their main concern was to get married, be a housewife and look after the children.

The ruling classes saw no need to change their position. There was a strong divide between the upper and lower classes. An Inspector Calls was written in 1945.

World War II ended on 8 May 1945. People (including the first II audiences of the play) were recovering from nearly 6 years of warfare, danger and uncertainty.

It was known that the Titanic sank in 1912.

As a result of the wars and the Suffragette movement, women were more valued in society.

There was a great desire for social change and, primarily as a result of the wars, there were less divisions between classes.

ive got my first mock exam for sheila coming up soon and i just wanted to say that this video is absolutely phenomenal and it is incredibly helpful

In Act 1, Sheila addresses her parents as "Mummy" and "Daddy", showing immaturity and childlike- behaviour. The first impression of Sheila that we receive is that she is naive and materialistic, we get this as she is clingy to her ring "I will let it out of my sight". This is well contrasted to Act 2, where she addresses her parents as "Mother" and "Father" and even directly talks to her mother, despite the patronising from Mrs Birling, Sheila's character has become more mature in Act 2, upon learning about the death of Eva Smith.

The character of Sheila feels the most guilt out of all the characters for the death of Eva Smith because she is most alike her; "a pretty girl, in her early twenties." Her character first begins to change when she finds out about the working conditions of the women in the work houses from her father, "These girls aren't cheap labour- they're people!" she argues back to her father which she wouldn't have done before in Act 1 in her childish attitude.

(What Grade would you rate this so far-)

thanks

how much marks would this anaysis get

This video saved my English work and many hours

does anyone know what shiela and mr birling relationship is like?

legend

great video saving my gcses thank you!

Fantastic. My students found this very useful

Can anyone just summarise everything he says so I can copy and paste it for my homework?

these videos are amazing, and perfect for revision, these videos are highly underrated. This man deserves more praise

Anyone else have a test where you don’t know which character you have to write 10 paragraphs about so you’ve crammed and rewatch all of these videos over and over again until everything’s just a mushed pile in your brain and you can’t remember anything and you don’t even know what counts as a pass because the Exam Board doesn’t decide what it is until after the exam?

I have an exam explaining the importance of Sheila tomorrow so this has helped a lot 😁

thanks so much helped me achieve a 9 in english lit and language

i have an exam tomorrow 🥲

is the vocab used in these vids enough to gain the 8 marks for vocab?

Why is it that I have only just realised from another YT commenter that Sheila is a characternym for "shielded"? No one seems to mention this.

Thank you for helping me through a practise essay I was given 🙂

Anyone have a mock on theme tomorrow cause me tooo ehhehehehhehehe

This video was very helpful and enabled me to understand so much about the character of Sheila and social change, I would 10/10 recommend this video to anyone struggling with the character of Sheila or the inspector calls play as a whole.

Got gcses on 26th April I wish all of u the best!!

Anyone hear in 2021 march??

my teacher just told me with 1 day notice that we have a assessment on sheila :/

thank you, my english teacher recommended to watch you and he was right. Your videos, are on points and there are no waffling. I have a test on tomrrow on context for inspector calls so Im going to be watching all your videos on different characters to help me understand. Thank you so much. P.S The animation format is really helpful, ima visual leaner

yo yo mr bruff man has failed his english gcse 4 times but now with u my g i passed lets go g thanks for tht my brotha we should go for a pint some my g shout out to mr bruff he is a solid guy

Nick gur

I've noticed that in ur videos there is analysis but not a lot of a02. Is the school I'm using enforcing ao2 too much and you present all that is needed or are you possibly not adding enough? Thanks for the videos they help :)

I'm playing sheila in the stage adaptation, this is super helpful!

Really happy that this exists. Great revision in quarantine

This was really useful thank you

What quotes show that sheila mimics the inspector?

i think this is the most common exam question in an inspector calls, as sheila is the role model for the change priestly wants in the society after the war. you cover it brilliantly Mr Bruff and these videos are extremely helpful thank you!

Thanks so much! This has been so helpful for my exams!

Inspector Goole, Inspector Priestley and now Inspector Sheila? They might as well have called it "An inspector (based on a different person who is now like an inspector) calls upon six people, one of whom will later act like an inspector"

if you wrote down everything Mr Bruff said in his videos would you get a 9?

Thank you very much. Very helpful.
