Subjects: Irish, Maths & French

Hi there, I’m John and I am an Irish, French & Maths Teacher, and Guidance Counsellor based in the Dublin area. I am a graduate of UCC (BA) Hibernia College (PGDE) and Maynooth University (PGDSGC).

I have 20 years of experience in the classroom to all levels, and extensive experience in one-to-one tuition. My approach to private tuition is always student centered. I teach students where THEY are at and strive to help them improve their educational outcomes. I have helped many students at Junior Cycle and Senior Cycle level (and indeed primary school & third level) since 2004. I tailor an approach based on the need of the individual student. For example, I work a lot with past papers and help students with exam approach & technique. I also work with the State Examinations Commission, conducting the Irish Oral Examinations each year, and correcting the Junior & Senior Cycle examinations in the summer.

I understand the different types of students and the various issues they experience in the modern education system, and adopt a compassionate and encouraging approach.
