FAQ's

📝 Is higher level English difficult for the Leaving Cert?

The exam challenges students to write around ten pages across two papers, each lasting nearly three hours.

What makes English hard is:

  • Time pressure — You must write quickly while maintaining quality, typically finishing one essay every 40 to 50 minutes.
  • Multiple text types — Switching between genres requires flexibility and practice.
  • Analytical depth — Simply summarising a poem or play scores poorly; you must engage with language, imagery, and themes.

Working with a tutor can pinpoint weak areas and build exam confidence quickly.

Our tutors in Bray

We have many English tutors in and around Bray with many recent university graduates who have a passion for the subject. There are even some postgraduates and English teachers who are available to provide lessons as well.

The average price for a lesson in these areas is 17 euro with the advantage that most of the tutors here offer the first lesson free so that you can experience their lessons and see if you find them engaging and if they provide the help that you are looking for. 

Most of our tutors here are happy providing lessons for all levels of English, so if you’re in secondary school or looking for help with your university modules, you’re still sure to be able to find someone who can fit what you are looking for. 

Some of the biggest aspects of the subject that are covered by our tutors are essay writing, linguistics, grammar and test preparation. More aspects of English are covered, just take a look through the profiles to find exactly what suits your situation. 

The advantages of getting a tutor

Having someone experienced and skilled in their discipline, giving you their full attention and time will help you leaps and bounds in increasing your knowledge and level of the subject that you are interested in. The reason why this is is that by focusing their attention just on you and your progress, they can offer more in-depth suggestions, improvements and constructive criticism as opposed to learning in a classroom setting or doing it all of yourself.  

They will be able to help you realise where and how to improve yourself and explain and demonstrate things that you find complicated and difficult thereby making the learning process a lot faster and easier for you.

For essay writing and proofreading it is a huge help when you can have someone knowledgeable about writing look through your work and give you detailed feedback and suggestions and to be also able to explain why and how these suggestions improve your work. This will result in you learning and developing your English writing skills further. 

Getting help for exams

Whether it is the Leaving cert or a Christmas exam, exams can be quite daunting but also very important on the outcome of your educational results. Having someone who can talk you through what to expect can help you be more prepared and confident which in itself will help you perform to the best of your ability. 

Our tutors will be able to give you hints and techniques on styles of writing and how to effectively approach exam/essay writing. How to approach the question, formulate your answer and put it down on the page in an orderly and comprehensible manner. 

In other words, having the help of a skilled tutor will make your life much easier and will help contribute to you getting a good result. 

Doing online classes

There are many benefits that you can enjoy from our tutors who offer online classes. The first being is that distance is not a problem in your search for the perfect tutor. Since travelling is not necessary, your selection of available tutors is greatly increased, allowing you to focus on what is important – the tutor’s experience and expertise in the relevant field that you are interested in.  An extra benefit of not having to travel is that you don’t have to worry about travel costs if your tutor only does classes from their home.

Another cost-saving of online tutoring is that many tutors offer cheaper online rates when compared to their in-person rates! 

If you are worried about how online classes would work you can always message your tutor and get some clarification and help as to how things will be set up. Many of our tutors also offer the first lesson free, allowing you to get a taste of how things would be and you to have the advantage of seeing if their teaching style and if online classes suit your way of learning before having to fully commit.

Our tutors give online help via webcam which means, even though the physical presence aspect is gone, lessons can still have a feeling of personalisation and friendliness. Much better than hearing just a voice through a screen!
