About the lesson
Sessions typically last 60 minutes, but longer lessons can also be facilitated.
The student should identify the topic(s) or chapter(s) they are struggling with prior to the session and communicate this to me. It is helpful to find out about the student's past grades and their desired grades prior to beginning, so that we are both clear of the aim of our sessions.
This information allows me to prepare memory aids, flashcards and practice problems, which are key to knowledge retention & success!

About Katie
I am passionate about helping students reach their academic goals. I have tutored students for the past 7 years. My experience includes:
University: Chemistry, Biochemistry, Mathematics
I have provided tutoring for students in NUIG, NUIM, UCD, DIT, DCU, TCD, AIT, CIT, GMIT & UK students.
I have also provided GAMSAT tutoring.
Higher & Ordinary in all subjects listed below;
Leaving Cert: Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Mathematics
I have also provided HPAT tutoring.
Junior Cert: Science (now common level), Mathematics, Geography
As someone who has spent the past 21 years in academia, I understand that oftentimes a clear, simple explanation, combined with repetition via practice problems can mean the difference between average grades and exceptional grades.
I can also understand how difficult it can be to speak up and ask questions in front of a class of peers, and that is why I am here to provide non-judgemental, supportive, private tutoring.

Deadly! Katie tutored both my daughters one in first year of college with Chemistry, and she also helped my other daughter with Maths and Science for her Junior Cert. Katie is a lovely helpful tutor
Katie's response
- Katie's response : I have been lucky enough to provide tutoring to both of Lorraine's daughters - one was in university, whilst the other was completing her Junior Cert. Both ladies were brilliant to teach!!! Thank you all
Kevin
Deadly! Katie was an excellent tutor. Made topics seem so much easier to understand. Without a doubt would not have done as well in my exam without her.

Katie is the only reason I graduated college. Not only is she an excellent teacher - she summarised my exams in order to maximise my grades for the least amount of work.

She is a brilliant tutor as she makes chemistry very easy to understand. she also uses alot of ways to display notes eg PowerPoint, mindmaps and even videos.
