I am 24 years old. I am from Dingle, the heart of the Ghaeltacht of Corca Dhuibhne. I learned my Irish growing up here. I am a fluent Irish speaker and from the age of 3, I was emmersed in the Irish language, and under took all my schooling through Irish. (Yes, Maths, Biology, everything! I still do Maths in my head in Irish as a result of this!) I tutor Irish with a big focus on examination results, and, having sat the Irish Leaving Cert and Junior Cert exams myself, have a deep understanding of them and how they are graded. In this way, I focus on building the confidence of the student by training them to answer the questions to attain maximum marks. I am also a very systematic person, and love to share my planning and strategic processes of breaking down questions and exams in order to simply them, so that the student can achieve the grade that they are capable of attaining. I, myself was terrible at maths at school, and trained myself through systems, recall and discipline to attain a H3 in higher level maths in the Leaving Cert. I really do believe that any student is capable of doing the same in the Irish exam if they have the right approach. I take this systematic approach to everything that I do, whether that be in my professional job with the IDA as a client advisor, or in sport, with running, football or basketball. My discipline in this approach has served me so well in my life to date, and I would love to share this with you through my tutoring. Elsewhere, I am well travelled, having spent a year living in New York City, working in sales, and another year studying in France. Thanks to this experience, I also speak French. I am a very enthusiastic person and I am very extroverted which helps students to feel at ease during our sessions. Thank you for reading! Mise le Meas, Niamh De Brún. I completed my Leaving Cert in 2019, attaining 533 points and a H1 (98%) in Irish. I completed a degree in Commerce and French in University College Cork. As part of this degree, I spent 1 year studying in Université Grenoble Alpes, learning and studying through French. I finished my degree with a first class honors in 2023.

Hi I’m Chloe! I’m 23 and I’m here to help with all things English! Whether it’s Literature, Language, Creative Writing or even if you just need help with your exam technique- I’m here to help. I have a positive approach and I believe in learning together- you’ll never be judged or put down to getting things wrong, we’ll just go through it together as many times as you need! I have experience with students with SEN and SEMH so can happily adapt your lessons in any way you need and I’m all for a 5 minute tea break when you need it. I look forward to meeting you and seeing how I can help! I graduated in 2025 with a BA (Hons) in English Literature with Creative Writing so I did a little bit of both sides of English! I have since been studying for my MA in Children’s Publishing which is so much fun but lots of hard work so I know a thing or two about study skills, revision techniques and time management.

GCSE: English Literature and Language A Level: English Literature and Language Experience with: Welsh and English schooling system Preferred student age group: Primary level Ever since my parents introduced me to the world of Roald Dahl and Beatrix Potter, my love for English language and literature has exponentially increased. Before moving to London for university, I lived on a farm in Wales with my family - and many cats! Due to babysitting my two younger cousins for the last five years, I have realised that I love to work with children. I am in awe of their ability to view the world from a perspective so different from the regular adult we encounter every day. My favourite book of all time is 'Silence of the Girls' by Pat Barker. This novel is an essential read, not only for women, but also the male population. It illustrates how the current state of affairs within the international sphere replicates modern day phenomena, with violence against women repeatedly being used as a weapon of war. Thus, my interest in gender-based scholarly studies and the international feminist movement is continually growing. Whilst I love to read in my spare time, I also enjoy singing and meeting new people. However, when I am not singing or socialising, I enjoy playing table tennis and badminton with my older brother. Not only this, but I love fashion and keeping up with the latest trends. Whilst I enjoy keeping active, as illustrated by my part-time lifeguarding job throughout secondary school, seeking the greatest bargains in charity shops is something I could not live without. I am easily distracted by stories, both fictional and non-fictional, and I hope I can bring a fresh and compelling perspective to GoStudent! Education: London School of Economics and Political Science I grew up on a farm in the middle of Wales, attending both primary and secondary school in my neighbouring town. After achieving six A*s, one A and one B in my GCSEs, I was very intrigued to discover how A Level education could continue to challenge me. After receiving three As and an A* in my A Levels (the A* being in English literature and language), I decided to go to the London School of Economics and Political Science to study Politics and International Relations. Despite not studying English in university, I have found that the endless essays I was required to produce have undoubtedly contributed to the continuous improvement of my English skills, and my love for English in general. I have completed my first year in university and look forward to returning to see what second year has to offer! Despite currently being in higher education, I am certainly very excited by the prospect of teaching younger children and helping them to discover how English can be fun! Of course, education is about learning and discovering our strengths, and how we can improve in other weaker areas to enable us to be the best possible version of ourselves! However, if we are not enjoying ourselves when learning, this obviously makes education seem less inviting! Thus, I am a passionate advocate of ensuring that education is not only enlightening, but also enjoyable and fun. I often babysit my two younger cousins and I love to read to them all of my favourite books as a child, as well as teach them new and impressive words they can use in school to show off to the class!

English tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence
Studying English at school includes technical aspects of the language such as grammar and vocabulary, and English literature focuses on text analysis and creative writing.
English-related skills such as reading and writing are vital throughout school, regardless of the subject matter. Learning how to communicate your thoughts clearly boosts self-confidence, improves vocabulary and leads to better exam results.
GoStudent English tutors offer one-to-one lessons tailored to your child’s needs, helping them understand where their weaknesses are in their written work and working with them to improve their writing style.
The advantages of studying English
English is an essential subject in the national curriculum. All students are required to pass English exams at primary school and English makes up one of the three core GCSE subjects in secondary school.
Studying for an English and Literature A-level or an undergraduate or master's degree can be hugely rewarding. Not only will you learn a great deal about the language, you will also be introduced to radically different ways of understanding and explaining the world.
An English degree can open the door to a wide range of career opportunities in fields such as teaching, editing, journalism and law. There is also a growing market for teaching English as a second language either at home or overseas, where the demand might be higher.
English tuition at primary school
English tuition at primary school is an excellent way to prepare for the future. Studying reading and writing helps with English language skills in general, and learning about different authors and their works may very well ignite a passion for reading in your child, laying the foundation for study at a higher level.
English exam preparation and English revision classes
GCSE exams are the qualifications students take at the age of 16. GCSE English provides a solid foundation for studying humanities courses at a higher level, and skills taught include writing essays, reading comprehension and text analysis.
If your child choose to continue to study English Language and Literature at A-level, it's extremely important for them to achieve a solid GCSE foundation.
