Find Accounting teachers

Accounting is a common subject for the Leaving Cert. Many Junior Cert students who took Business end up going to do Accounting too as it builds upon many of the elements introduced in Business. If you did well in business there's a good chance that you’ll be ok in accounting too. None of this explains how a tutor can help though. Many of our tutors have experience in teaching both Business and Accounting at every level, even for our struggling university students. This means they have a wealth of knowledge and more importantly experience for Leaving Cert Students. Secondary school teachers always have advice and tips but they are restricted by class time and the fact they haven’t gone through the education system in a very long time. Our tutors are different, they are often just out of college, actively studying in college or had a few years of experience. This means they have experienced what the system is like currently and can provide more relevant and useful information. 

Teaching accounting

Tutors provide a lot more than just useful tips. Accounting is filled with a lot more than just profit and loss statements in the Leaving Cert. There are many types of accounts, niche details and necessary definitions to remember and distinguish. Accounting involves memorization, maths and applying your knowledge. While it is basically expanding on Junior Cert business, that doesn’t mean it is just as easy. Many questions can arise while studying accounting at any level of your education however due to the packed nature of the Irish curriculum and the pressure of fitting your questions in-class time it can often be difficult to get good answers to your questions. If you’re practising some accounts/ statements or anything similar it can be hard to be impartial when it comes to correcting your own work and if you get into difficulty when doing one, it can be hard to know where to get help from. Tutors provide solutions to all these problems. 

General benefits of a tutor

Tutors offer a wide range of services that can benefit any student, not just students of accounting. Many students, especially in the Junior Cert, struggle with consistency but sessions with a tutor provide that consistency. The regular sessions provide a time every week to simply sit down and get some work done, with the help of a hyper-focused teacher. Accounting involves a lot of repetition and practice so that means these classes really help to pick up accounting consistently. Now what are the other benefits of doing work with your tutor, well the environment of a tutoring class has many benefits over a regular school classroom. On average, there are fewer distractions, the tutor can tailor the course for their respective students and questions can be asked in a more comfortable environment with no need to “raise your hand”. A lot more time can be spent on tricky concepts and just generally you’ll see the rate at which you learn improve immediately.
