“Don really helped me get my head around some of the tougher topics on the exam. I thought he was really relatable and had a great way of teaching the subject.”

“I was getting <40% in Maths class tests in 5th Year & started Maths grinds in 6th Year. I just got my results back and I got a H1, I couldn't be happier and I owe a lot of it to Rob. He's an amazing teacher and I'd recommend him to anyone!”
