How to hire a tutoring pro in Ireland
- Ask about Garda vetting — legally required only through organisations, so independents should offer references instead
- Match the tutor to the Junior Cycle or Leaving Certificate syllabus, including Higher vs Ordinary level
- Compare private grinds against grinds schools (group classes at institutes, often cheaper per hour)
- Take references from other families and run a paid trial lesson
- Book early for the January-June Leaving Cert run-up — demand spikes hard
- Agree cancellation terms and whether notes/past-paper marking is included
Private tutoring — universally called 'grinds' in Ireland — is unregulated. Garda vetting is only legally required when tutors work through relevant organisations, so with independents rely on references; grinds demand peaks January-June before the Leaving Certificate.

Frequently asked questions
When should exam-prep tutoring start?
Three to six months before the exam for consolidation, or a full year for a student targeting a big grade jump. Starting six weeks out limits the tutor to triage — past-paper drilling on the highest-weight topics.
How do I check a tutor is safe to work with my child?
Ask for the background check standard in your country, take references from at least one current family, sit in on the first lesson, and hold sessions in a common area of your home rather than a closed room. Reputable tutors expect all of this.
Is group tutoring worth it compared to one-on-one?
Small-group sessions (2-4 students) cost each family roughly 40-60% of the private rate and work well for exam-technique classes. One-on-one wins when the student has specific gaps, learning differences, or is far behind — the whole point is tailoring pace.
Do private tutors need to be qualified teachers?
No country in our coverage requires it — tutoring is unregulated almost everywhere. That cuts both ways: excellent tutors exist without teaching credentials, but the burden of vetting subject knowledge, safeguarding checks and references sits entirely on you.
What do grinds cost in Ireland?
One-on-one grinds typically run EUR 25-45/hr, with experienced Leaving Cert specialists at EUR 40-60. Grinds schools charge less per hour for group classes — a common budget route for popular subjects.
When should Leaving Cert grinds start?
September of sixth year for a planned improvement, January at the latest for exam-technique triage. The best-known grinds tutors and institutes in each subject fill up before Christmas.
