Leaving certificate​ mathematics grinds and tutors – preparation course​

Preparing for Leaving Cert Mathematics? UniProf's tutors help you get to grips with exactly what the exam tests, not just maths in general.

Paper 1 vs Paper 2: What Each One Actually Tests

Leaving Cert Maths is split into two 2.5-hour papers, sat at Higher, Ordinary or Foundation level. Paper 1 focuses on numerical and algebraic skills, covering Algebra, Complex Numbers, Calculus and Functions. Paper 2 focuses on applied maths, covering Statistics and Probability, and Geometry and Trigonometry. A H6 or higher at Higher Level is worth 25 bonus CAO points, making it one of the most valuable subjects to get right.

Common Reasons Students Look for a Maths Tutor

You're not the only one, these are some of the most common situations our students bring to their first session:

  • Stuck on a specific strand, like Calculus, which has appeared in up to half of recent Paper 1 questions
  • Unsure whether to stay at Higher Level or switch to Ordinary Level
  • Needing a structured revision plan that covers both papers, not just one
  • Wanting to secure the bonus CAO points and needing to close a specific gap
  • Preparing with past and mock papers but not sure where marks are actually being lost

What Maths Topics Can UniProf Help You Improve?

Your tutor focuses on the strands and topics you actually need. This can include:

  • Algebra and Complex Numbers (manipulating formulae, simultaneous equations, and more…)
  • Calculus (differentiation, integration, first principles, and more…)
  • Functions (graphing cubic, exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions, and more…)
  • Sequences and Series
  • Geometry and Trigonometry (synthetic, coordinate and transformation geometry, sin/cos/tan rules, and more…)
  • Statistics and Probability (data representation, hypothesis testing, the normal distribution, and more…)
  • Financial Maths
