Very positive overall. My daughter has improved significantly in Leaving Cert biology over the last four months. I am giving four stars rather than five simply because the first tutor was not quite the right fit. The second has been fantastic and the change since switching was immediate. Daresne sorted the switch quickly once I asked.
Highly recommend. My son went from H5 to H2 in Leaving Cert chemistry. His tutor was brilliant.
My son had been getting Bs and Cs in A level maths without anyone identifying why. His Daresne tutor spotted within two sessions that he was making systematic errors in algebraic manipulation that were flowing through into every other topic. Six weeks of focused work on this one area and his marks improved across the whole paper. Excellent diagnostician.
My son was memorising science content without really understanding it. His tutor changed the approach completely - focused on understanding mechanisms rather than memorising facts. My son said to me one evening that he finally understood how science actually works. His marks have improved significantly and his attitude to the subject has changed completely.
My daughter speaks Polish at home but A level Polish for an exam board is very different from conversational Polish. Finding a tutor who understood both the language and the UK exam specification was the challenge. Daresne found exactly the right person. Her written work has improved significantly and she is confident about the final exam.
My daughter used Daresne for maths, chemistry and biology throughout A level. Three subjects, three separate tutors, all through the same platform. All three results came back as As. She is going to study medicine. I started this review three times and did not know how to do it justice. Just: thank you Daresne. Twelve sessions a month across each subject.
Brilliant. Cannot say enough good things. My son has gone from failing to a predicted H2 in Leaving Cert physics.
My daughter was struggling specifically with the OS map and statistical analysis sections of Leaving Cert geography. Her tutor identified this quickly and structured sessions around these specific skills. Within two months she was confident on both. Overall grade is now on an H2 trajectory. Really targeted approach that worked.
