Any tips for doing well in Junior Cycle English?

Make sure you pay attention to the details like grammar, punctuation, spelling, and handwriting. Good vocabulary is very important to doing well so try and take note of any new words you come across. A good way of learning quotes is to record yourself saying them and then play them back on your phone. Before you start writing a longer answer such as an essay try and put together a quick plan.

Future Careers

English is important for a variety of career sectors such as Advertising, Marketing, Administration, Media, Film, Publishing and Politics.
