The video tutorial clarifies the differences between purpose, perspective, and point of view, which are often confused by students. It defines the author's purpose using the P.I.E. acronym (persuade, inform, entertain) and explains point of view as the narrator of the story, which can vary in literature. Perspective is discussed as the feelings and attitudes of characters or authors, requiring inference. The tutorial emphasizes understanding these concepts to improve comprehension and analysis of texts.
