The Ideal Online Tutor

What Makes a Grind Worth Your Money

Grinds have a reputation for being exam cramming, and a lot of them are. The difference between a tutor who lifts a grade and one who fills an hour is whether they teach the underlying idea or just drill past papers. We hire for the first, then match on temperament, because the tutor who suits a student chasing a H1 is rarely the one who suits a student who has quietly given up in Maths.

Specification Expertise

Every tutor holds a degree in their subject and is assessed on the SEC specification your child is examined against, at Higher, Ordinary or Foundation Level. They know the marking scheme, not just the material.

Patience That Holds

Most students struggling in Sixth Year aren't stuck on this week's topic. They're missing something from First or Second Year. Our tutors are trained to find that gap and go back for it, however many times it takes.

Vetted, Safe and Accountable

Every tutor is Garda vetted before taking a student. Sessions are recorded to your account, and no contact happens off-platform. You can review any lesson whenever you like.

Tutoring for every subject, without the hassle

An Online Grinds Platform Built for Irish Families

The teaching is the hard part. Everything around it, booking, rescheduling, paying, tracking progress, should take under a minute. And because it's online, a student in west Clare gets the same tutor a student in Dublin 6 does.

Easy Scheduling

See live tutor availability and book around school, training and everything else. No driving to a grinds centre on a Saturday morning.

Simple Rescheduling

Plans change. Move any session from your dashboard up to two hours ahead, at no cost.

Integrated Secure Classroom

Lessons run in our own virtual classroom with a shared whiteboard built for maths notation. Nothing to install, no third-party links to chase.

Recorded Sessions

Every lesson is saved to your account, so your child can replay an explanation the night before a mock and you can see exactly what was covered.

No Locked Contracts

Pay as you go or choose a monthly plan, billed in euro. Cancel anytime, without a fee or a phone call.

Progress Reports

A written summary after every session, plus a fortnightly report showing topics mastered and topics still needing work, in the language of the specification.

Grinds From Primary School to Leaving Cert

From primary school numeracy to Sixth Year Higher Level, our tutors teach the specification your child's school actually follows. That includes support for students in Gaelscoileanna and Gaeltacht schools who are learning maths and science through Irish, a place where confidence slips quietly and early.

Leaving Cert and Junior Cycle Exam Preparation

Exam technique is a separate skill from knowing the material. Our tutors cover marking scheme strategy, timed paper practice, orals and practicals, and the coursework components that now carry a large share of the final grade.

Tutoring Matched to the Irish Curriculume

Ireland runs one national curriculum, set by the NCCA and examined by the State Examinations Commission, but what a student needs changes completely between Second Year and Sixth Year. We match tutors by stage as well as subject, so nobody is taught Leaving Cert technique when what they're actually missing is Junior Cycle foundations.
Online Tutors available nationwide: Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford and every county in between.

Primary School : Numeracy and literacy foundations, and the move to secondary
Junior Cycle : First to Third Year, CBAs and the Junior Cycle Profile of Achievement
Transition Year : Keeping maths sharp during a year with no formal exam, before Higher Level decisions get made
Fifth Year : Where the Higher or Ordinary Level decision is really made, and where most grade slippage starts
Sixth Year : Full Leaving Cert preparation, mocks, orals and coursework deadlines
CAO and Beyond : Points planning, subject choice and entry requirements for your target courses
