Son could speak French reasonably well but his written French was very poor. His tutor worked specifically on the writing tasks and how to structure them for the mark scheme. Three months later his predicted grade on the writing component has gone from a 3 to a 7.
Started GCSE maths preparation early in Year 9. At the time some people said it was too early but it has paid off enormously. Son is now in Year 11 sitting GCSE maths a year early and expected to get a strong grade. Daresne tutor has been consistent and really good throughout.
Was concerned Daresne would not have tutors familiar with the CCEA examining board used in Northern Ireland. Was wrong. Tutor they found for daughter has excellent knowledge of the CCEA specification and past paper style. Her progress has been brilliant. Recommend to other parents in Northern Ireland.
Children educated through Gaelic medium and finding subject tutors who can work in Gaelic is extremely challenging. Daresne found a maths tutor comfortable working in Gaelic who knows the Scottish curriculum. This was genuinely something we thought was impossible to find online. Delighted.
A level religious studies is not commonly tutored but Daresne found someone excellent. Tutor has a theology degree and is brilliant at helping daughter engage with philosophical arguments properly. Marks went from Ds to As. Predicted a high grade for the final exams.
Daughter very talented at performing but really struggling with music theory and harmony elements of A level music. Tutor is a professional musician who has taught A level before. Sessions have transformed her understanding. She is now performing well on all components.
Daughter is in the top set for science but wanted to push for top grades. Tutor has been brilliant at stretching her thinking beyond what she needs for the exam. She now approaches questions with much more depth and confidence. On track for all 9s which was the ambition.
Using Daresne for son for both GCSE English and maths. Both tutors have been excellent and he has improved significantly in both subjects. The matching process is clearly very thorough because both tutors have been a perfect fit for his learning style. Would recommend without hesitation.
