Kerrie is available for private classes, including classes to work on a specific topic. Private classes are tailored to the needs of each individual student.

Private classes are $45 (tax included) for the first hour (or any part of the first hour) and can be broken into 15 minute additions after that. Please contact fios@torontogaelic.ca for further information or to arrange times.

Students who want to have a private session to review concepts covered in class, work on conversation, or who want to review a concept they will need for a class level can arrange to book a 30 minute tutorial with Kerrie.

Tutorials are only available to students who have registered in TGLA courses for either the September 2025 or January 2026 term. Students who have registered in any of these group classes can book a tutorial any time until a new year of classes begin in September 2026.
