    hey, my little brother just did really badly in his first year summer tests, after a year of bad results.
    Does anyone know of any grind teacher that caters to the castleknock area?

    Grinds won't make any difference if he has an underlying problem. It would be unusual for a child to have consistently poor results all through first year if there is not a problem.

    Was there no subject he was successful in?
    What does he think is the reason he's not doing so well?

    Did a masters in maths, but obviously not English!

    Because it takes a Masters in English to not make typos now? : p

    Meh, "I teach at seconday level - and am doing..." doesn't really make much sense in all fairness.

    Give grinds at secondary level, perhaps?
