About Seán
I am a qualified secondary school teacher specialising in Irish and Geography. My educational background includes an Undergraduate BA Degree (1.1) in Irish and Geography, and a Professional MEd Degree (1.1) in Irish and Geography. I also hold an accredited TEFL qualification. I offer Irish grinds for both Junior and Senior Cycle students, focused on improving exam performance, building confidence, and helping students achieve their best results. Bookings are now open for the 2026/2027 academic year.

My lessons are structured around building the key language skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. There is a strong emphasis on the oral component, which accounts for 40% of the Leaving Certificate, alongside reading (17%) and listening (10%).
For Junior Cycle students, lessons cover listening skills, reading comprehension, studied texts (including 2 poems, 1 short story, 1 drama, and 1 novel), as well as written pieces such as story writing and blogs.
For Leaving Certificate students, lessons focus on the oral exam, aural/listening skills, reading comprehension skills, poetry, prose, and essay writing, all aligned with exam requirements and marking schemes.
Each lesson lasts approximately 1 hour and is designed to be tailored to the individual student’s needs.
Discounts are available for group sessions.

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
I highly recommend Seán as an Irish tutor. His guidance on the oral section is unparalleled, boosting my confidence immensely. Plus, his extensive collection of notes is a lifesaver. If you want a clear and practical understanding of Irish, Seán's your guy.
Seán is an excellent tutor and a very friendly person! Has a great interest in the Irish language and in supporting students to achieve their potential in the subject. He puts extensive effort into preparing lessons and notes for students, explains difficult concepts in easy, understandable terms, and offers students with tips and tricks on how to succeed in the exam - particularly the oral!

Details
I am currently taking bookings for the 2026/2027 academic year. Grinds will take place in a private office space in Limerick City. An initial consultation will be held online via Zoom to discuss the student’s needs and goals.
I strongly believe that in-person grinds provide the most effective learning experience. Group sessions are preferred, as they give students the opportunity to communicate with each other and build confidence in spoken Irish.
Students may need to purchase certain materials, including exam papers, a notes copy, a folder, and an exam-skills book. These are not included in the hourly rate and must be sourced independently.
Lessons are conducted primarily in person to maximise engagement and interaction. Students must also have access to a Gmail account, as all learners will be set up on their own Google Classroom to support their progress and organisation.
