In order to encourage students to explore different writers, styles and genres, as well as help them develop a love of literature, our lead English tutor Milda has compiled a list of 12 book recommendations for each year group from Year 3 to Year 11. The books on the list range from timeless classics to recent releases. As they go through the list, students will become familiar with the work of world-famous writers and meet iconic book characters.

We hope that students will explore these not only during the summer holidays but also throughout the academic year!

“I have seen massive changes in my daughter’s attitude to maths. She has gone leaps and bounds in confidence when approaching papers. She has learnt topics before she’s had to learn them at school, or has just had subjects reconfirmed for her during her tutoring at Trefoil. 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!”

With the final lessons of the year now over, we would like to thank our students and their parents for all of their hard work and support. The 2020/2021 academic year was one of the most unusual and challenging we have encountered and our tutors will now take a short break.

In the final Senior Tutor update of the academic year, Vivek reminds parents to book in their parent report calls to review their children’s progress over the Summer Term. Further, Vivek reminds parents that all materials will be removed from our online portal in three weeks' time. To keep students engaged during the summer, we will also be sending out summer projects for Mathematics, English and Science. The coming week will also see the event we will be running for our A-level students about personal statements and applying to university in the UK - we look forward to seeing you there!

During the last few weeks, we have asked our students’ parents for feedback regarding their experience using our services. We are grateful to have received as many as 40 responses – thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! Here are some of the results of this year’s feedback survey:

"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."

As we begin our final week of group lessons this academic year, we would like to congratulate our students for their hard work this year and thank parents for their support. We would like to wish all our students and their parents a restful summer break, and we look forward to seeing you again after the break!

In this week’s Senior Tutor Update, Vivek welcomes everyone to the final week of the academic year. This week, students will receive all their marked assignments and assessments and will work through corrections with their tutor.

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

Our Senior Tutor, Vivek Gathani, shares his advice with parents who are looking to find the right support for their children. In the video, Vivek has outlined four guidelines that he advises all parents to follow before engaging a tutor to work with their child.

In this week's Senior Tutor Update video, Vivek highlights that our priority registration deadline has now passed; with over 220 places already booked, we are now allocating places all available places for lessons in September on a first-come, first-served basis. Our Director of Studies Rebecca reminds all students that, as we reach the end of the academic year, our assessment week is moved to Week 11 so students can receive their marked work before the holidays.

"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."

We are delighted to announce that registration for lessons taking place in September 2021 is now open to new students!

We offer lessons in Mathematics, English, Reasoning and Science. In our small group lessons, children work with a subject specialist and follow a carefully planned scheme of work.

If you are interested in joining our lessons or if you would like to speak to us in order to find out more information, please call our Manager Rosie on 0203 565 0539 or email us at registrar@trefoiltutors.co.uk.

We would like to remind parents of our current students that the deadline to make the payment for your reserved places for the Summer Lessons and the Autumn Term is this Thursday, the 1st of July.

In this week's senior tutor update, Vivek reminds students to avoid taking their foot off the gas with the term at school ending in the next three weeks. At Trefoil, we have a twelfth of our academic year remaining and must make the most of this contact time.
