Saad's mum

Parent

"The best thing about the lessons is that they didn’t get thrown into the deep end – they were told exactly what they were going to do, and everything was well prepared."



Ria and Anya's Mum

Parent

"I’m really happy with the work that Vivek does and the way he teaches – he really challenges my girls. He’s very, very patient; he can sit and explain everything ten times if you need him to and he makes everything sound very easy."



Gabriela's mum

Parent

"We are delighted with Gabriela’s progress: she has improved so much, in her confidence, in her attitude to the subject - and she looks forward to the lessons."



Pupil, Year 6

Student

"Vivek would take his time to explain to each student what they were struggling with - and he would always explain it in a fun way."



Avi and Aman's Mum

Parent

"Avi has been a good student but over the years had plateaued in maths, and I can honestly say that Vivek has brought back that spark about maths to Avi."



Jonathan's Dad

Parent

"The lessons have given him a great deal of confidence and he’s got the belief he can achieve the top grade in maths."



Karan and Rohan's Mum

Parent

"They’ve built up a good understanding of mathematical concepts and, as a result, they’ve improved a great deal in school."



Pupil, Year 11

Student

"It’s nice being in a group, because you can compare your work and it’s nice to see how other people have thought of doing the same question."



Nikhil

Tutor

"Trefoil is a very professional working environment. It gives you the ability to teach something that you love to students who really need your help. Its allows you as the tutor to make the decisions for when you want to tutor yourself and the timings that best suit you. It is very user friendly and provides the best working environment for the tutee."



Kabir's Mum

Parent

"We were working together as a team - the tutor, the parent and the child. I think that is the best bit and they couldn't have done it better."



Aaliyah's mum

Parent

"As a parent, I am very happy that we've enjoyed coming to lessons at Trefoil Tutors and we are looking to continue – especially as we have seen such improvement!"



Neil

Tutor

"It always helps having information which will help you become a better tutor. There’s no better people to ask than Vivek and Milda who have been tutoring and teaching for so long. The PDS opened my horizons, and provided tailored advice on how you can structure your lessons"



Samad and Saif's Dad

Parent

"One of my sons has been with Trefoil Tutors for over 5 years now and has enjoyed every bit of it. As parents, we can see he’s achieving much higher results in his academics at school."



Meghna

Tutor

"There is a lot of support with the teaching here at Trefoil Tutors. If I want to make my lessons better there are seminars the tutors can attend and there are ways in which the teachers here can help you become better. Not only am I teaching, but I am also improving my own skill set, which I feel is very valuable in the long term."



Suhan's Mum

Parent

"Suhan has recently been moved into an accelerated group, where children can learn more as the speed and depth is differentiated for this group of children. That helps Suhan push forward towards his preparations for exams."



Neil

Tutor

"My experience so far has been wonderful and I’ve been provided with the best support. The work environment is very useful. I find that it is very quiet and the classrooms are equipped with good printing, whiteboards and good Wi-Fi. I find this particularly useful as whatever type of lesson plan you have, you can do!"



Joshua's Dad

Parent

"Trefoil Tutors is extremely well organised - it's more like a small school than a traditional tutor. It is very ordered and structured; there is a clear routine for all the lessons. We've been extremely impressed with both the service and the approach from both Vivek and Milda."



Aaliyah's Mum

Parent

"I love the fact that we had mock exams here as well, which the children certainly have found very helpful – we all have – and identifying what her weaknesses are and what she needs to improve on, as well as what she is actually very good at. In that regard, I think the whole programme has been fantastic and it’s very good for children who are sitting 11+."



Aarav's Dad

Parent

"Trefoil Tutors are a very professional company - they are very supportive and always available whenever we need them."



Anya and Ria's mum

Parent

"I definitely recommend to go to the tutor that has actually taught in the school, because they know the curriculum, they know what level the kids should be at, they know exactly what will fit into the curriculum, and how they are going to fit into the 11+."



Aadil

Tutor

"Trefoil makes it very easy for tutors to coordinate their timings with both the tutors, their parents and slots for booking rooms in the office. I’ve never once struggled to find a time slot that works for all of us."



Anthony's Dad

Parent

"English in particular has been a great success. He found the group sessions in English useful because kids tend to exchange or share ideas and that is something that he wouldn’t get if he went to a one-to-one session."



Kabir's mum

Parent

"Kabir never felt like he was missing out on anything or lagging behind because Vivek took the time to explain each concept to each and every one of the boys."



Anya and Ria's mum

Parent

"He is always here to advise me. If she is struggling with something, I’ll always say to him that she is finding this hard or she is not coping with this very well, and he’ll always come up with a solution for me – he is always so helpful."



Suhan's mum

Parent

"The feedback is excellent. The tutors do test children every third week and every sixth week of the half term and they do give feedback to parents so we all can work together."



Shrina

Tutor

"I really enjoy working at Trefoil as there are a variety of support systems, I know I can always email, text and ask for resources whenever I need. Having previously worked with other tutoring companies, the level of service and support provided by Trefoil is amazing."



Avi and Aman's mum

Parent

"It’s a very professional environment yet it’s friendly at the same time. They are very organised: everything is very well planned, we get the lesson dates well in advance. The communication is great and the newsletter keeps us informed about any changes that are happening."



Jonathan and Lili's dad

Parent

"We found is that the feedback is very structured, and in fact even more detailed than what you get in a school report, because it’s just focusing on one subject."



Anya and Ria's mum

Parent

"The group lessons are nice, because she can see at what level other kids her age are as well. So it helps her to exceed herself."



Kabir's mum

Parent

"The kids just get it because he explains it in such a good way and he knows what he’s talking about. There are no grey areas and the best thing about Vivek is that he goes over it with so much patience."



Avi and Aman's mum

Parent

"I think Vivek is a very good backup – he affirms what they learned at school and gives them the ability to question it as well as work through the problems with them. For me, I think we have found our niche here for maths."



Saif and Samad's dad

Parent

"Vivek was our maths tutor and he’s great, his lessons are very focused and very friendly. The kids just love it. Milda was our English tutor at Trefoil – a great person, the lessons are very composed and basically exceptional."



Lili's dad

Parent

"My daughter has had Mr G for about a year or so in preparation for 11+ and what we did notice is that she went from a bottom set in her school at maths to the middle of the top set."



Pupil, Year 10

Student

"Usually when you go to a maths tutor, you just expect it to be boring and slow and just more questions – but here it’s not. The way Mr G teaches is fun, it’s animated and he’s always willing to have a chat about different maths and make it fun at the same time."



Kabir's mum

Parent

"The fact that Vivek is a former HABS teacher was definitely one of the factors making me decide that I would send my son to Vivek, because he knew what he was talking about. I knew he has done the HABS syllabus, so certainly Vivek would point him in the right direction."



Saif and Samad's mum

Parent

"They give us feedback every month and we, parents, know how they are doing in lessons. If there is something not right, they let us know straight away as well."



Saif and Samad's dad

Parent

"As a parent, I’m extremely happy my kids are attending Trefoil Tutors. The reason behind it is the grades that they are achieving and their keenness of coming to Trefoil Tutors, which they really love."



Anya and Ria's mum

Parent

"Ria’s maths has escalated. She has always been very good with her maths, but Vivek has pushed her, challenged her. For someone who is going to be doing her GCSEs next year, she is actually at an A-Level standard."



Saif and Samad's mum

Parent

"Trefoil Tutors has done so much for my son – he has matured a lot, he’s concentrating a lot more and his grades are excellent because of Trefoil Tutors, not because of the school."



Salma's dad

Parent

"Since Salma attended Trefoil, her mathematics seems to have improved quite a bit and her grades have improved to reflect the good teaching methods that are being employed."



Kabir's mum

Parent

"I mean I wouldn’t event think twice before recommending you guys and particularly Vivek as a maths tutor. Best investment ever."



Suhan's mum

Parent

"Whenever you have any enquiries, any concerns as a parent, they are always happy to discuss or respond to your email and work accordingly with the children."



Rory's mum

Parent

“I really enjoyed the 11+ Parents’ Evening. It was helpful to get the insights from Vivek and Milda about the process, the timeline; how they overlay the tutoring sessions on top of that timeline; and to get some insight into different schools, as well.”



Kishi's mum

Parent

“It was such a fantastic idea for Vivek and Milda to organise the 11+ Parents’ Evening because I had no clue about 11+: I didn’t know what to expect, I was scared from what people had told me. But coming here it made me feel more comfortable about it. There’s nothing as good as feeling and knowing that you are supported.”



Salma's dad

Parent

"Trefoil Tutors recently introduced their new website, which is very useful and helpful because we can now track the lessons and the progress. Additionally, we recently downloaded some 11+ mock exams and answers from the online portal, which was very helpful."
