Son was struggling across all three sciences. We focused on biology first with Daresne and within a few months his confidence had grown enough that he started approaching chemistry and physics differently too. He got a 6 in his biology mock which he was really proud of. Tutor made it feel manageable when it had felt overwhelming.
This time last year daughter was getting 4s in English language and was disheartened. Started Daresne in January and she got a 7 in her mock in November. Improvement in her writing is really visible. She now actually enjoys writing which I never thought I would say. Tutor has been incredibly patient and encouraging.
Son doing A level physics and was really behind after some disruption at school. His Daresne tutor is clearly very knowledgeable and my son says he explains things better than his school teacher. Not something I thought I would hear but there it is. He is now on track for his target grade.
Daughter had a really negative attitude toward maths after a difficult yr8. By yr10 she had basically given up on getting anything decent at GCSE. Tutor spent time rebuilding her confidence before even getting into exam technique. She is now predicted a 6 and does her maths homework without being asked.
Really hard to find good Arabic tutors in the UK and Daresne came through. Tutor was brilliant and understood the specific requirements of the GCSE syllabus. Daughter improved massively in written Arabic and reading comprehension. We will use Daresne for A level Arabic next year as well.
Son was really struggling with the programming elements of GCSE computer science. Tutor made Python make sense to him which was what we needed. He now actually enjoys coding. His teacher at school said his programming work has improved significantly. Positive experience overall.
Came to Daresne after daughter got a D in her first biology mock. Tutor completely changed how she approaches the subject. Instead of memorising facts she now understands the processes. She got an A in her most recent mock and is predicted an A star for the finals.
Son needed a 5 in English. Got a 6. Job done.
