Daughter was predicted a C in A level biology and needed higher for her medicine application. Eight months with her Daresne tutor and she sat the exam predicted an A. She got her medicine offer. I still do not fully understand how the improvement was so significant but it was.
Congratulations on the medical school offer! This is such a fantastic achievement and your daughter should be incredibly proud. The Daresne Team
Daughter struggling with folio and close reading elements of Higher English. Tutor was really good at both and helped her understand what the marking scheme looks for. School marks have improved noticeably. Really pleased with the quality of tuition.
Daughter is genuinely talented at making work but the written analysis component was pulling her grade down. Her tutor helped her understand how to write about artistic choices and contextual influences in a way that actually matches what examiners look for. Her written marks have gone up significantly.
Son had been coasting through micro but macroeconomics was not landing. His school teacher moves fast and he was falling behind. His Daresne tutor spent the first few sessions just on macro concepts using current events as examples. By week four something clicked. He has not dropped below a B since.
Son chose GCSE Latin but was finding the grammar very difficult. Tutor is genuinely passionate about Latin and classics and has made it come alive for him. He now says Latin is his favourite subject. His marks went from Ds to Bs. Quite remarkable.
Daughter got into her grammar school. Daresne was a big part of that.
Son doing IB maths and finding a tutor who knows the IB specification rather than just A level maths was the challenge. Daresne found someone very familiar with the IB curriculum and teaching style. His IA has improved a lot and exam preparation is strong.
Son took on GCSE Ancient Greek as an extra subject and was finding the grammar extremely challenging. Tutor has a classics degree and is genuinely passionate about the subject. Son now loves ancient Greek and marks went from Ds to As. Really exceptional tutor.
