I do have one problem, it would be really nice if you put the images towards the center more, because whenever i pause the video to read it, it seems to be obstructed by the text from the video. But overall great video. Thank you.

so is this a revision on how to answer the river questions if they do ask for rivers in paper4 alternative, and also will they ask more than just rivers in the exam e.g like weather instruments and hypothesis and so on, anyways thanks for the revision though
