The best approach is to immerse yourself in the language and understand how marks are awarded

My daughter is starting to panic. As she approaches her Irish and French Leaving Cert orals, she feels out of her depth. It doesn’t help that the junior cycle exams were cancelled due to Covid. This is her first real exam. Have you any advice?

Next is poetry reading : the examiner will choose one of five prescribed poems for her to read. She must not forget to first read the title and poet’s name. This may include yourself, your family, where you live, your pastimes or hobbies, etc. She should practise with a fellow student or a person with a fluency in Irish.
