English (H)

This Course is based around advancing the knowledge and skills of students in order to help bridge the gap between Junior Cycle and Leaving Certificate. Students will be introduced to the different Language Genres prescribed for study at Leaving Certificate. This is crucial work that must be done in preparation for Paper 1 of the exam, which is worth 50% of the final grade.

This course will comprise:

Irish (H)

This course will strengthen student’s concept of nouns and noun structure in Irish just in time for entry into the Senior Cycle. As these are the building blocks within the sentence, it is imperative to begin these in a timely manner.

In this course, we will introduce the student in a comfortable manner to the noun in Irish, explaining with ease, masculine and feminine nouns while providing an introduction to the infamous Tuiseal Ginideach (the genitive case) in Irish. Following on from this, we will then introduce students to the Modh Coinníollach and the verbal noun to come full circle. By the end of this course, we are confident that students will be well prepared to face any aspect of grammar from the Senior Cycle.
