Personal Description:
Hi I am an experienced Examiner, and Teacher for over 13 years.
I often say to my tutees "You not getting an A is a dent on my reputation and I can't afford that"
I feel I am an expert in teaching the highly-prized exam technique to raise students’ grades to over 90% mark.
I have an entire team that works with me on various aspects of a subject, from flashcard trainers, revision tutors (These are my former students at top Unis) to exam prediction experts using algorithms to predict the upcoming actual exams. The above services are all free for my tutees.
Tutoring Experience:
have taught students from all backgrounds of all abilities.
Till date I have taught over 600 students all over the world, from Private to State schools.
I have also excelled with students facing learning difficulties, because all it takes is a little more effort, patience and resilience.
I do not give up on my students or nor do I let them give up.
Approach to Grinds:
When preparing students for exams, We focus on three areas: subject knowledge, exam practice and time management skills. We do extensive research ahead of exam season and work through a range of exam techniques with my tutees including question spotting and prediction.
However with all that being said, I shall let my work speak for itself.

From Jane (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) My daughter is very happy doing maths with Vivek.
From Mary (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) Vivek is the best there is. Simple. Highly recommended on every level. Thank you for everything. 100% worth every penny.
From Amita (/5): (Senior Cycle Biology) Vivek is an excellent, professional tutor. My son excelled in his biology leaving certs. Thank you very much for your great help! Highly recommended!
From Martha (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) So grateful Vivek was able to fit us in! he made even the most difficult of topics easy to understand and taught Sam how to answer the questions in such a way as to get full marks. We were delighted when Sam got his A, thank you for all your hard work, enthusiasm and dedication, we really appreciate it.
From Carlos (/5): (Senior Cycle Economics) Vivek has tutored my daughter Economics and Maths since Summer . Her grades has improved from D to an A in Econ and C to an A in Maths in that time.
Vivek has provided excellent support both during set times and queries outside, providing plenty of material for the week between sessions.

From Joe (/5): (Senior Cycle Biology) Absolutely first rate. Vivek's expertise in teaching the exam technique combined with his passion and ability to connect with my daughter's needs got my daughter from a C/D to an A, so now both her future and her place on the medicine course are secured. Thank you Vivek!
From Camron (/5): (Junior Cycle Maths) My son says he only has to mention one word on a topic and Vivek knows what he is referring to. Vivek then breaks it down into easily manageable blocks and then builds them up again to ensure he learns it. No surprise I have learnt he now helps undergraduate students! Has been brilliant for my son. If Vivek is still available I will pay for tutor time from him for my daughter because my son/we rate him soo highly.
From Brandon (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) Vivek is an EXCELLENT teacher for all three sciences, Chemistry, Physics and Biology. His way of explaining complex topics is quite simple and my daughter has excelled since she started the lessons with him, and she now has better, deeper understanding of her subjects and her confidence has grown.
Could not recommend him strongly enough, a bit expensive though but we certainly think his input is value for money.

From Zay (/5): (Senior Cycle Economics) Vivek is helping my daughter with her Chemistry. She had been struggled with the Maths elements of Chemistry. Vivek is able to break it down so my daughter understands, he is very good at explaining and she is finding the sessions very beneficial and I would highly recommend Vivek as a tutor.
From Shanin (/5): (Junior Cycle Maths) Vivek has been excellent for our daughter. Under his tutelage her confidence and understanding of the subject has increased significantly. This has also been reflected in her grades - in her recent exams she achieved a 2 grade increase from what had been predicted by her teachers. She found him easy to get along with, non-judgemental an flexible with timings. All in all an excellent investment. Highly recommended.
From Dawson (/5): (Junior Cycle Maths) Vivek is an excellent tutor. He conducted a thorough assessment to establish areas of strengths and weaknesses and created a learning programme based on his findings. He is friendly and approachable and is adept at explaining things in a variety of different ways to ensure the student understands every concept. He works at the student's pace and encourages questions and discussion. My son used to dislike Maths and now really enjoys it! Highly recommend.
From Alex (/5): (Senior Cycle Biology) The coaching from Vivek is really good. My son has scored from C to A in Biology and B to A in Chemistry grades. Vivek is a good coach with attention to detail.
From George (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) Vivek was simply amazing in his dedication and focus in helping my son with his Physics and Maths.
He crystallised concepts with such clarity that my son, who was struggling with certain modules for his first year of A-levels and the best part of second year, gained the necessary insights in a matter of weeks. Vivek tailor made each lesson and went back to basics to build up from a solid foundation which my son found really helpful. Would highly recommend.

From Carol (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) Vivek worked with my son on his Mathematics for about a year, and he is an excellent, engaged, and rigorous tutor. Vivek has significantly improved my sons skills in mathematics, and also his confidence in and enjoyment of the subject. His support was key to my son obtaining an A-list place at a prestigious college, and we are delighted.
He was a great help, and I have been very impressed with his professionalism, and with the results that he has obtained with my children.

From Daisy (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) Vivek has helped massively with my son’s maths and chemistry. Previously he struggled with “word maths problems” especially. Vivek has helped him to approach questions in a logical calm manner and to attempt every question on a paper. My son sat the test and on his first attempt he actually failed the maths paper. On his second attempt, after a few sessions with Vivek he scored 89%
Vivek is friendly, punctual and very organised.
We have complete faith in his ability to push our son on and increase his confidence in his maths and chemistry. I would highly recommend him as a tutor.

From Frank (/5): (Senior Cycle Economics) Can't say enough good things about Vivek. He's made a significant impact on my daughter's progress and confidence in Econ, physics and maths and is clearly a patient and engaging teacher which is so important for teenagers (pretty remarkable given everything has been done online). It's very clear he's thought about and prepared for each tutoring session, and that there's a long term strategy at work.
Vivek also communicates well with us: an initial assessment of strenghts and weaknesses, followed by ongoing feedback, and always happy to answer any questions we have. He has also gone above and beyond to help us with school and scholarship applications, as well giving some thoughtful feedback on specific schools we had under consideration. Incredibly helpful and useful.

From Jose (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) I was promised predictions by Vivek on board exams and my god were they accurate. It seems like he knows things most other tutors do not. I am thankful that he accepted my request for tuition.
From Alan (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) Vivek has the ability to make even the most complicated concepts easy to understand. He is approachable and identifies well with his pupils
The end result was over 90% in all three sciences and maths. Thank you Vivek!!

From Aqsa (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) Vivek is a simple, funny, happy and calm human being with a monster brain and foresight. There are not many teachers who truly understand student's problems and queries about the subject but he really does. Vivek makes most complex topics look simple and easy.
From Aamir (/5): (Senior Cycle Physics) Hi Vivek is a genius, although I must admit he was my second choice tutor. I had someone teach me in person, very expensive but could not answer my questions, lacked depth and subject knowledge. I then contacted Vivek against the advice of my parents as they were not sure about online grinds. However once it began my grades started improving and slowly I felt much more confident.
The icing on the cake were his predictions
3 weeks before the exams Vivek gave me predictions which were unbelievably accurate, he is a brilliant teacher and such a kind person.

From Quintone (/5): (Senior Cycle Physics) Vivek is a brilliant tutor and a wonderful person. He explains the most complicated chapters with such clarity and ease but it is help with exam technique that makes him just so remarkable.
Thanks mate you are Absolutely the Best

From Roy (/5): (Senior Cycle Biology) Vivek is an excellent tutor who helped my son on all 3 science subjects. He developed a wonderful rapport with him which made the tuition more enjoyable. Thank you Vivek for all you help
From Cole (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) We are very happy to have found Vivek and have his support for my son who is studying Applied Science and Maths. From first contact to trial session to confirmed classes, the set up of this was very efficient and professional and I like the transparency of communication between Vivek, my son and myself through WhatsApp. Vivek’s in-between support is invaluable too. My son is learning how to approach assignments correctly as well as ‘general’ study support.
From Paul (/5): (Senior Cycle Economics) From the outset you have tailored your lessons to Lauren's very individual needs. You have taken the time to really understand where her knowledge was lacking and almost ,just as importantly taught her in a way which absolutely suits her style of learning . You have made the subject (economics ) so current and relevant and the use of examples and with your humour ,have made the subject come alive . Despite only seeing you once a week , you are always there to answer questions or assist with any queries , whether by phone , email or what's app… your teaching doesn't finish at the end of the lesson , it's as if you are there all the time ! Cannot begin to express how glad we are to have found you as a tutor . Incredibly , Lauren is now considering studying some form of economics at university , such is the enthusiasm you have created around the subject for her . Thank you so much Vivek
From Lori (/5): (Senior Cycle Chemistry) Initially i was looking for a tutor who could give my son more confidence. Vivek has done just that. My son went from having very low confidence to now being quietly confident. He is continuing with Vivek on a weekly basis. Vivek is an exceptional tutor. He is extremely patient and explains his methods in a way that you understand it. My son will continue now until GCSE and hopefully A level!
From Ava (/5): (Senior Cycle Physics) Thanks to Vivek, today I have been accepted in my first-choice university. I have never met Vivek in person, he tutored me online for a year and had more confidence in me than my school teachers. Vivek is extremely knowledgeable and talented, I wish all students struggling with confidence would go to him.
From George (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) From the brink of failure to bliss
At the beginning of the year we were looking at C and Ds for our son.
In a few short months you helped to turn this around. He went from strength to strength. A* in Maths ,Physics, Chemistry and Biology is really oustanding. Sometimes these kids need the right person to push them in the right directions.
Thank you eternally for your help and support.

From Jason (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) In the last 16 months I have at least hired 6 tutors all of them qualified and I must say expensive charging €40-50 but my children kept failing before Vivi as he likes to be called started tutoring my children I did not think much of this lad initially but in a week I realised he is special and today the results are out and both my children have scored 90% in Maths . As a mother who values the future of her children I would highly recommend him. Thank you so much.
Reply from Vivek: Thank you Mr Stephens
