Our experience with Jeevan has been, and continues to be, truly fantastic. He is extremely dedicated to teaching, and his commitment has made a remarkable difference for our son.
For a long time, we struggled with our son’s behavioural, emotional, and compliance challenges, all of which affected his academic progress. We worked with several tutors before, but none were able to achieve any real progress. Then we found Jeevan. From the start, he demonstrated great skill in understanding our son’s personality and building a strong relationship with him. This bond helped our son become more cooperative, engaged, and willing to learn.
When Jeevan began, our son resisted even holding a pen and had very weak foundations in basic maths and English. Within just a few months, we started noticing significant improvements. Now, after a year of working with Jeevan, our son is close to reaching the expected academic level for his age — an achievement we once thought would take much longer.
Another strength is Jeevan’s continuous and detailed communication with us as parents. After every session, he provides thorough updates not only on academic progress but also on any emotional or behavioural observations. We regularly discuss the best way forward, which gives us confidence in the process.
Jeevan has carefully reviewed the curriculum from Year 1, identifying and addressing gaps step by step, which has made a huge difference in building a strong foundation for our son. The progress achieved in just one year is outstanding and speaks volumes about Jeevan’s talent and dedication as a teacher.

Many thanks for your kind words, Bob. It’s been fun and rewarding to teach your child this year and follow his progress through many topics and skills across the curriculum.
I look forward to seeing the progress he will undoubtably make in the new term!
J has been a fantastic support for our daughter and the impact is clear after only a handful of sessions. Our daughter struggles with confidence and focus in her subjects but after discussing with us, he found different activities to encourage her confidence and interest. J communicates with us at the end of each session to update on her progress and next steps. His encouragement has meant that our daughter has started to ask more questions about school and her subjects which is great to see her engage more.
Also, J is very kind and understanding, and communicates well with the parents regularly via text to inform of key information to be aware of.
We are excited to see how our daughter improves under his teaching in the next few months.

Thanks a lot, Sofia. It has been great to work with your child and see her excitement for learning grow. It’s equally great to see her confidence grow as through the class as she masters new topics. Thanks for letting me part of her learning journey. She’s a superstar!
Jeevan is an amazing tutor! He works with my daughter and has really helped boost her confidence in maths. He’s very patient and kind, and his lessons are well structured, making it easier for her to understand the material. We’re so grateful for his support!
