How is isolation presented in a Christmas carol?

Isolation is presented through the abstract nouns of the ghosts. Scrooge had diverged all relationships and friendships through his behaviour and negative approach. The characters of the ghosts emphasise the loneliness of Scrooge and act like a stimulus is showcasing his inner emotions. Dickens has presented Scrooge as an outsider in society and victim to his own, self-inflicted loneliness. No one necessarily pushed Scrooge away, instead he himself ostracises from society. This is shown through “self contained and solitary as an oyster”, the sibilance is similar to that of a snake which suggests something sinister and making his way through life alone. This main theme of loneliness has been presented by Dickens starting from his childhood to his older years.

I help students achieve their full potential !

Hello:) I am a University student studying English Literature at Kings Collage London. For the past three years I have been working as an English, Spanish, Arabic and Sociology tutor with children ages 5-16. My passion for teaching and helping students achieve their full potential is the reason why I am working as part time tutor whilst aspiring to be a teacher once I have graduated. My teaching techniques are simple. I adapt my methods to the students depending on their level and pace, encouraging and helping them to obtain and exceed their targets. I have worked with children as young as 6, teaching them phonetics, how to read and write. Additionally, I have tutored many GCSE and A-Level students preparing them for their exams. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate in contacting me:) If you have a pro membership then please contact me at: aminahagha3@gmail.com

Enthusiastic and friendly tutor in Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Chinese, and 11+ / ISEB exams.

Hi there! My name is Theo and I am a Year 13 student studying Biology, Chemistry, Maths, and Chinese (4 A*s, 11 GCSE Grade 9s), looking to pursue medicine at university. I am particularly fascinated by human biology and biochemistry, but enjoy learning about other subjects that interest me, such as politics and Chinese history and culture. I thoroughly enjoy teaching, and would love to take the opportunity to share my academic knowledge and other insights as a mentor. For the last year I have worked for two hours a week as a voluntary tutor, where I have developed the skills and understanding required to be a successful tutor. I also find it incredibly exciting and rewarding to see students develop and get to grips with new topics, as well as be enthusiastic about topics I'm also keen on! I enjoy a student-led approach to tutoring, where the goals and targets of the student are our primary focus, such as an upcoming exam. What I quite like to do is, if there is a particular topic that the student would like to focus on, then we can go through the theory of it together, but if not, it can be really beneficial to go through past paper questions together and then pause and reflect on any topics that are particularly challenging.
