01What we can work on together
Connect numbers, symbols and graphs. Explain why a method works and use a simpler case to test an unfamiliar problem. Read the question, identify the unknown and choose a representation. After solving, check units, substitution or the shape of a graph instead of relying only on an answer key.
02Match practice to your course
The current programme is Junior Cycle. The older search term “Junior Cert grinds” remains common, but revised subject specifications and classroom-based assessment guidance should determine the preparation.
03Make the lesson fit your school work in Ireland
For a grinds plan in Ireland, bring the current class or year, course level and school feedback. If you have recently moved into the Irish system, identify unfamiliar terminology and assessment expectations before adding extra revision work. Bring an attempted question so your tutor can see how you reason, then agree what to practise next.
