My daughter speaks French natively but was still only getting Bs in A level French. Her tutor identified that the issue was not her French but her exam technique - not answering questions precisely, not using the register the mark scheme rewards. Six weeks of focused work on this and she is now predicted an A. Good teaching is good teaching regardless of native ability.
Really pleased. My daughter has gone from failing to passing Leaving Cert French and her tutor has been fantastic.
Good overall. Tutor is solid and my daughter has improved in A level economics over the past few months. Minor gripe is that one session was cancelled with only a few hours notice. It was rescheduled quickly enough but it was inconvenient. Would still recommend.
My daughter loved reading before Daresne but her written analysis was too descriptive. Her tutor taught her how to construct a literary argument - how to interrogate a text rather than just summarise it. The change in her writing is visible. Her teacher said so unprompted. Predicted an A.

She talks about books differently now too. Predicted an A.
Really good. My son has improved in Leaving Cert maths over the last four months and is predicted H3 now from H5. Very satisfied.
My son was getting H5s in Leaving Cert chemistry and was not confident at all. His Daresne tutor is very methodical - goes through past papers in detail and identifies exactly where marks are being lost. Six months later he is at H2 and targeting an H1.
