RachaelFrom Deirdre (3/5): (Junior Cycle Gaelic)
From Helen (/5): (Senior Cycle Gaelic) Very disappointed with service. She agreed to do in person but when we arrived at house there was no one home. She had changed to on-line. We went home and my son did not enjoy her approach, quite condescending so we paid one lesson and have stopped.
Reply from Rachael: I appreciate response, however you contacted me in June and I heard nothing until the 2nd week in September when I had everyone in their slots as school had already started back. You couldn’t have been at my house as you didn’t have my eircode and there’s a general area in the country as there’s just a general address given on the page. You didn’t make a call to see if I was going to you or you were coming to me etc nor did you mention it when you contacted me to ask about grinds! I did inform you that currently we are having works done in the house and I would be willing to do in person in a couple of weeks when things were completed. I absolutely was not in anyway condescending towards you or your son. I apologised for the way things worked out, you had caught me off guard when you rang and said you were outside as we had just buried a family member the previous day! You mentioned none of this last week when I met you to collect payment. It is not in my nature to act as you have described as evidenced by all other reviews! Wishing your son all the best with his future!

From Malcolm (/5): (Junior Cycle Gaelic) Rachael was really helpful not only responding to all contacts but when we raised concern over the distance, Rachael recommended another tutor who was in the same area as us. This went beyond what could have been expected.
