The main difference is the price. Boost for each available subject only costs €49.99, and you get access for the school year. A grind costs roughly the same but for each session, of which you might have many throughout the year.
Boost offers in-depth explanations of topics & concepts, tests your knowledge and provides insider tips and advice on how to succeed - much like a grind! The only thing Boost doesn't offer is an in-person experience where you can chat one-to-one with a tutor, but we've put a lot of effort into our videos to make it feel like the teacher is right there with you, teaching you all you need to know.
We asked our users to recommend the best teachers in their school who positively impacted their learning. We also contacted state examiners for the Leaving & Junior Cycle exams. We then asked these teachers to create Boost content for us. They are highly knowledgeable and well-trained in their respective subjects. Check out their bios here to find out more about the individual teachers and their qualifications.
Definitely! The structure and content of Boost is based on the science of learning. This means we've laid the content out in such a way as to optimise how you learn and ensure you stay engaged while studying.
The content is all bite-sized so it never feels daunting - just click on your first lesson and we'll take it from there!
We sure do - all mandatory experiments are covered in detail, ensuring you have all the knowledge you need on the day of the exam, and that you understand it too!
You can indeed. Look out for this symbol on any of the notes to print them out:
Boost is more effective than a revision book thanks to the interactivity element. Our videos help to keep you engaged and create a feeling of being in a tutor's lesson. Boost also has test-yourself tools which track your learning and help to keep you on the path to success.
Absolutely. Boost works across all devices and browsers, so you can use Boost wherever it's most convenient for you.
