Leaving Cert 2025 Higher Level Maths Saturday Course – Dún Laoghaire

Is the first day of course free?

Yes your first 2 hour class is completely free, it is a trial for you to see if the class will add value to your studies. Students just have to register in advance at the bottom of this page.

When and where will the course take place?

The Course will take place on Saturday mornings from 10am to 12pm at Lexicon Library in Meeting Room 4 on level 5.

We will break for Easter Saturday 19th April.

Other than that we will run every Saturday up to and including June 7th (special Paper 2 focused class.) On Bank Holiday Saturdays May 3rd & 31st the Lexicon is closed so we will be at the Royal Marine Hotel.

Will the course be Exam Focused?

Yes – highly exam focused. This course is tailored for Leaving Cert Higher Level Maths Students 2025. Dara, the tutor has 8 years of experience preparing classes and individual students to excel in their Leaving Cert Maths Exam. He is expert in distilling the Leaving Cert Maths course into learnable Key Notes, explained through worked examples. These worked examples with key notes will be provided as a take home resource as part of the course. This is a succinct, clear and proven resource and it is very achievable to learn this inside out within 10 weeks.

Past Papers Questions are how we will learn this material. Dara has selected a representative portfolio of past papers questions. In each class we will work through 6-10 questions. We will discuss a question, understand the hints within a question, set a strategy, and enact the strategy to solve the question. Any of the more difficult techniques are demonstrated first, before students get a chance to practice independently. Guided, structured problem solving is the foundation of this course.

How will the course be split up between Topics and Papers?

The course will be split as the paper is split. We will work through full exam papers, going quicker through easier questions and really drilling into the more challenging topics. The first hour is devoted to Paper 1, and the second hour is devoted to Paper 2.

Saturday May 31st is fully devoted to Paper 1. Saturday June 7th is fully devoted to Paper 2.

We will particularly focus on the low, medium, and high-medium hanging fruit. Niche questions which were in the hardest 5% of material in a given year will not have large amount of time spent upon them given the likelihood of them appearing again is slim. They will however be included in the 5 years worth of worked examples which students will receive for their independent study.
