01What we can work on together
Read for meaning, support an interpretation with evidence and organise a clear response for its purpose and audience. Start with a short passage or your own paragraph. Identify one claim, locate the evidence and explain the connection, then revise a sentence to improve clarity.
02Match practice to your course
Use teacher feedback and the school’s current primary curriculum plan to choose priorities. A short tutoring activity is a way to understand a difficulty, not a substitute for the school’s assessment of the child.
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.
