About Sally
I am a BSc Hons graduate with a minor in applied languages from UCD. I have always been passionate about learning languages, I studied French throughout college and for six years in secondary school and I have always really enjoyed it and thrived at it. However, I recognise that there should be more of a focus placed on oral learning, pour maîtriser une langue in secondary school. After all, the end goal of learning a language is being able to speak it!
In my lessons, I focus on oral proficiency through spoken Irish and regular revision of grammar and verbs, to sharpen my students' linguistic mechanics. My goal as a teacher, is to meet the students where they are at and help them to achieve their learning goals via whichever mode of learning which suits them best "If a child can't learn the way we teach them maybe we should teach them the way they learn" Ignacio Estrada.
I have studied biology, French and Irish throughout secondary school and achieved H1 grades in each subject at leaving cert level. Obtaining a good grade takes perseverance and diligence, values which are at the core of my teaching approach. Furthermore, I aim to translate my positive learning experiences into an engaging and focused lessons for students who are seeking to fulfill their academic potential.

I offer comprehensive lessons in Irish... centred round you! I aim to simplify the convoluted nuances of our brilliantly complex native language, breaking down the numerous grammar rules, grammatical structures and provide opportunities to practice and reinforce these concepts via sentence and oral creation relevant to the learner. I believe the way to master the language is by regular practice and what better way to do this other than to give students a chance to use Irish to express themselves and what they are passionate about in life.
The structure of my lessons is as follows:
We will start with some informal oral conversation, (I compile a vocabulary list here and throughout the lesson). I assist the student with any topics they are currently struggling with. We progress to the main topic e.g. the imperfect tense, I explain the rules and then we will look at applications of it and try a few exercises, involving applying the new verb tense in sentence structure. Then, I address any questions the student may have. I conclude the lesson with a review of what we've covered and provide a few homework exercises (don't worry I don't give much homework as I understand the students already have enough to do!). I like to keep my lessons varied by incorporating a mixture of learning methods; reading and comprehension, listening to aural tapes, written and oral expression. This helps to keep the student engaged and strengthens their command of the language.
