Personal Description:

My academic qualifications include a BA Hons in English and Geography (2.1), a Masters in Geography (1.1), a Masters in Education (1.1), and a BA in Music (with a focus on vocals).

Approach to Grinds:
My approach to grinds is to allow the student to not only grasp the topic or subject they are struggling with but to learn to love it. I supply topic or subject packs. I also give exercises, I give hour long classes explaining in depth the information necessary to pass exams as well as techniques for using that information in the most efficient way.
I employ interactive exercises as part of my tutoring technique. My aim is to show the student that we are equals and that I am here to help them on their journey. I firmly believe that all students have the ability to excel when supplied with the correct support, patience and guidance.
I offer one to one or group classes weekday evenings or weekends for secondary school students. I can do one or two hour blocks.

I appreciate your feedback. I understand that our lessons were limited due to scheduling conflicts. I acknowledge the challenges with using iPads/phones and the difficulty it posed in accessing **E-mail Address Removed**Classroom and completing essays. Regarding the pacing and level of difficulty, I adjusted as per your feedback to increase this, but I regret that we didn't have the chance to discuss it further as there seemed to lack of engagement when I did as directed. I would have been happy to discuss. I provided access to resources even after our lessons ended to support learning. Despite the challenges, I genuinely wish you all the best in your future.
Thanks,
Miriam
I would highly recommend Miriam.
Miriam uses positive reinforcement and constructive feedback, which is clear and direct, which has empowered my daughter to embrace literary challenges (the sandwich approach).
In summary, Miriam's commitment to building confidence, and passion for her subjects makes her an invaluable asset to any student preparing for the English Junior or Leaving Cert. We wholeheartedly recommend her services!
