Son has ADHD and the tutor adapted sessions brilliantly
Son has ADHD and finds it hard to focus for long periods. Tutor was made aware and completely adapted her approach. Sessions are more dynamic with varied activity and shorter focused bursts. His progress has been remarkable and school is noticing the improvement too. Impressed with the quality.

GCSE results and all six grades improved from mock
My daughter sat six GCSEs and used Daresne for three of them - maths, biology and English. All three went up from her mock grades. I think the confidence she got from Daresne spilled into the other subjects too.

Okay but not what I expected
Okay but not quite what I expected going in. Results day showed my son got an H4 in Leaving Cert maths which is an improvement on where he started but we were hoping for H2. The tutor was fine but I think perhaps not the best match in terms of teaching style. Not a bad experience, just not as transformative as some of these other reviews suggest it can be.

Kevin thank you for being honest about this. An H4 improvement is real progress but we understand you were hoping for more. We would love to chat about whether a different tutor or approach might help if your son wants to continue. The Daresne Team

Very happy
Very happy. My daughter kept her university offer. Her Daresne tutor for A level chemistry was brilliant.

Leaving Cert results and 635 points for medicine
My son needed 625 points for medicine. He used Daresne for maths, biology and chemistry. All three came in with H1s. He got 635 points. He came downstairs on results morning holding his phone out to show me the screen. The best day of his life and one of the best of mine. Twelve sessions a month across all three subjects throughout sixth year.

Son has dyslexia, tutor was fantastic with him
Son has dyslexia and has always found English very difficult. Tutor used approaches that work better for dyslexic learners. He has made more progress in the last six months than in the previous two years. His confidence has also improved a lot which is probably the most important thing.
