August 10, 2024The teachers are amazing! They helped me with both JC and LC topics. The maths teachers are very patient, and they break down the complicated maths topics into simple explanations... read more that helped me tremendously in my state exams and mocks. The language teachers (French, Romanian Irish and English) are amazing at helping students understand what exactly the examiners are looking for in their answers, all while showing them how to write an answer that is unique from the other answers that the examiners will correct.The business teacher gives great notes, as well as contemporary case studies and examples that students can use in their answers to get more marks. All teachers help students to think outside the box, whilst teaching them what to write in their answers that will get them the most marks in the exams.

My son attended Solomon grinds for Spanish written and Oral, Irish and Maths. He attended the classes from September until just before his Leaving Cert and found the additional learning... read more to be excellent. He was struggling with the Spanish aural exams and the tips the teachers gave him were invaluable and he was able to apply the same tips for the Irish listening exam also. He found the teachers for all subjects to be very helpful and informative. I would highly recommend Solomon grinds and will be bringing my daughter for grinds when her time comes. Catriona is also brilliant and takes a personal interest in the students. Excellent service for an affordable price. Well done and thanks to Catriona and all the team.

August 7, 2024The experience that my son had with Caitríona and Solomon Grinds changed his entire perspective about the upcoming Leaving Cert exam and Maths in general. I watched him grow in... read more confidence with each lesson when things finally started to make sense. The cost was also really competitive compared to private lessons which meant we could start earlier in the year and do 2 classes a week. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get some support with their school work and exams.

Both my girls went to Solomon grinds. My eldest was very weak in Maths and her teacher gave her extra help plus coming up to the exams additional zoom... read more grinds to ensure she would pass her exams. She did really well and got into her preferred course. We also got a text wishing her well and a congratulations text. They really looked after her. My second daughter did Maths, Spanish and Computer Science. Computer Science was not on the grinds list and Solomon grinds secured an excellent teacher and my daughter would not have done so well without Solomon Grinds. All the teachers are excellent, focused and dedicated. The groups were small. I highly recommend Solomon Grinds - On reflection I wish I started bringing them a year or two earlier. Thank you to all the teachers in Solomon Grinds.
