Daughter is autistic, tutor adapted perfectly to her needs
Daughter has autism and can find new situations challenging. Was very thorough explaining her needs when we started. Tutor was clearly well briefed and adapted her style immediately. Within a few sessions daughter was comfortable and engaged. Her progress has been really good.

Mostly excellent, one small gripe
Our tutor for GCSE Spanish has been brilliant. Patient, well prepared, clearly knows the AQA spec inside out. My one gripe is that twice she had to cancel with less than 24 hours notice which was frustrating when my daughter had planned her revision around it. Four stars overall — the teaching quality is a five.

Rachel really sorry about the last-minute cancellations — that is not the standard we expect and we will follow up. Glad the overall experience has been positive. The Daresne Team

Maths A level, dropped from predicted A to a C. Back to a B now.
Son had a rough few months and his maths grade slipped badly. Was predicted an A in Year 12 and by the start of Year 13 was getting Cs. Two sessions a week with Daresne and he has pulled it back to a B and is targeting an A again. Tutor has been excellent at rebuilding his confidence as much as the content.

Biology A level, from predicted C to an A in eight months
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.

Higher English in Scotland, coursework really improved
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.

Arts & Design A level, written analysis was holding her back
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.

Economics A level, macro finally clicked in about week four
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.
