Started with Daresne for son in Year 5 who was falling behind in maths. Within a term he had caught up. By the end of Year 5 he was actually one of the stronger students in his class. Tutor was really good at keeping sessions fun. Good option for primary support.
Son chose GCSE Latin and was really struggling with the grammar and unseen translation. His tutor went back to basics with the declensions and verb patterns and built things back up from there. He is predicted a 7 having been getting 4s. Really glad we found the right tutor for it.
Daughter struggled with structuring geography essays and applying case studies. Tutor was really good at drilling exam technique. She went from a C to an A in her last assessed piece of work. School teacher commented the work had improved noticeably. Pleased with how things have gone.
Was worried whether Daresne could help with Scottish qualifications but the tutor was completely familiar with National 5 curriculum and exam format. Son has improved a lot and feels much more confident. Would recommend to other Scottish parents.
Thank you! We have tutors experienced with Scottish qualifications and are really glad this worked well for your son. The Daresne Team
Daughter was retelling stories in essays rather than analysing them. Very common problem apparently. Tutor was excellent at teaching how to structure analysis properly. School marked work has improved from Cs to As. Really happy.
Son was failing every assessment in economics. Not close failing, properly failing. His tutor spent the first session just finding out what he understood and what he did not rather than rushing to cover content. Two months later he passed his most recent assessment. His teacher asked if something had changed.
Son did not get the grade he needed in GCSE maths first time. Found Daresne for the resit and he passed with a grade 5. Tutor was very focused on areas he had specifically struggled with rather than starting from scratch. Very efficient approach and it worked.
Michael so pleased to hear this! Passing a resit takes a lot of determination and your son should be really proud. The Daresne Team
Just got my A level results and I got an A in chemistry which I honestly did not think was possible six months ago. Was predicted a C. My Daresne tutor completely changed how I understood the subject. She was incredibly patient and we went over things as many times as I needed. The difference that tutor made is hard to overstate.
Isabella congratulations, this is absolutely brilliant! An A from a predicted C is such a huge achievement. Your tutor will be over the moon too. The Daresne Team
