Frequently Asked Questions

Spanish Leaving Cert Grinds female student in class

NO

You have a completely free Spanish grind with me.

If you are happy to continue after it, you can make payment for your first official class.

Every student’s way of learning is unique and I tailor the Spanish grinds to reflect that. 

As a Doctor of Cognitive Science, I gained valuable insights into how the brain works, especially  with language, and I fuse this knowledge with the latest in eLearning technology.

This gives you the student the best learning experience possible. 

As one of my past students said:

Dave gives so much time to your improvement and is really invested in your progress”. – Hannah Sharky.

I’ll let the facts answer this…

Many of my students come to me because they are struggling with Spanish – be it the grammar, listening, reading or writing. For example, some of these students were getting grades like 35% to 40% in their school exams and, as one mother said, “my son has NEVER passed a Spanish exam in his life!”.

However, ALL of these went on to get grades like H2s and H3s in their actual Leaving Cert. exam after a few months in my classes.

There is absolutely no reason why YOU couldn’t be another success story of My Teacher Dave.

YES

I provide classes which are designed to equip you with a greater understanding of all the “nuts and bolts” of the Spanish language. These include: grammar, vocabulary, listening, reading, writing and, super-important, exam preparation.
