About Trevor (Tianyu)
I have achieved:
• 1st Place in UK - Náboj Team Mathematical Challenge - 2020
• Top 100 in UK three times with medals in British Mathematical Olympiad in 2018, 2019, 2021
• Top 100 in UK with Gold Award in British Physics Olympiad Senior Challenge - 2021
• Distinction in Bebras Computing Challenge (Elite) - 2018
• I’m providing the same quality of Oxbridge application preparation as larger Oxbridge-focused companies (which I worked with), who generally charge around £200 per hour. I offer these high-quality lessons independently with comprehensive materials that I’ve curated over the past 4 years. Enhanced DBS checked.
• I have led admissions and competition workshops and talks at top UK schools, which each secure over 20+ Oxbridge offers each year.
• I maintain personal connections with current Oxbridge interviewers, giving me access to up-to-date insights on personal statements and interview expectations. Through my service, I can connect applicants with current interviewers from the other university, for example, if you are applying to Cambridge, I may refer you to Oxford interviewers. This is in line with Oxbridge regulations, as interviewers are not permitted to provide tutoring to applicants for their own institution.
• In recent years, I’ve guided 11 of my students to achieve top 100 rankings in UK Olympiads, and helped 30+ students in securing offers for Oxbridge / Imperial courses including Cambridge Computer Science, Oxford Mathematics and Computer Science, and Imperial Computing (AI & ML).

My son was very satisfied with the way everything was explained so clearly and carefully.Perfect! Trevor is the kindest, most caring, professional tutor. He has been very supportive and highly recommend him. He is very knowledgeable and consistent. Thank you Trevor for being the very best !
Perfect! Trevor is an outstanding Further Maths tutor. He has a calm, patient manner and an exceptional ability to explain complex concepts clearly and logically. My son’s confidence and understanding have grown enormously since working with him — he now actually looks forward to his lessons! Trevor’s sessions are always well-prepared, engaging, and tailored to the student’s needs. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for expert maths tuition.
Perfect! My initial Lesson with Trevor was spectacular, and I was not expecting to learn so much so fast within only 30 minutes. This has left me with wanting to book more classes with Trevor and I do believe that for my TMUA prep, Trevor will play a pivotal role. Bases on even the initial lesson, I would recommend him to anyone looking to achieve highly on their TMUA and other oxbridge admissions assessment.
Perfect! Just had the initial free lesson, I found Trevor has a lot of really useful tips and knowledge and I have booked further lessons with him.
Perfect! We have had just two sessions with Trevor so far and we are already very impressed. He has a clear and effective teaching style and has quickly helped our child build confidence with TMUA logic questions. Trevor’s techniques focus on smart problem analysis and time-saving strategies, which have made a noticeable difference even in a short time. We are looking forward to continuing the sessions with him.
Perfect! Trevor is an excellent TMUA tutor, gives such great tips and clues that makes even the hardest problem easy to understand and solvable. His lessons are very engaging and he explains the subject well. I enjoy his lessons and I am very happy to have met him! His lessons are clearly making a great positive impact on my results.
Perfect! I genuinely enjoy and look forward to my TMUA lessons every week. Trevor makes the sessions engaging and insightful, always sharing useful tricks and tips that make complex problems much easier to understand. After each lesson, I feel more confident in my ability to tackle the TMUA exam.
Trevor is incredibly kind and supportive—not just during the lessons, but also outside of them. He’s always happy to answer questions and provides valuable suggestions and information whenever I reach out. His dedication is clear, and he takes the time to track and update my progress regularly, which really motivates me.
His teaching has boosted my confidence significantly, and I’m very grateful for all the help he provides. I hope I get a high score in the TMUA—and with his guidance and preparation, I believe I can. Highly recommend!Perfect! I liked the way he comes down to my level of understanding and then explains the concept
Perfect! Trevor has been outstanding in preparing our child for maths challenges. His sessions are focused, strategic, and tailored to high-level problem-solving techniques beyond the standard curriculum. He breaks down complex concepts clearly, encourages lateral thinking, and builds strong analytical skills. Our child has grown in confidence and ability thanks to Trevor’s thoughtful, methodical approach. Highly recommended for anyone aiming to excel in competitive maths.
- Raymond is a sharp and quick thinker with standout mental maths skills. He picks up concepts fast and solves problems with ease, often in his head. It's impressive to see someone his age already working at JMC level, he’s definitely ahead of the curve and shows great potential in maths.Trevor (Tianyu)'s response :
Perfect! Just started TMUA with Trevor, he is a focused teacher who is very experienced with not only a strong personal record in the TMUA himself, but also has spent a lot of time researching and developing his own methods to make the exam clearer and easier. Would recommend.
Perfect! As a Cambridge Computer Science applicant, I started lessons with Trevor on a recommendation from someone a year above me, and he’s been amazing. Trevor has tons of insights and materials specifically for Oxbridge Maths and Computer Science, which have been incredibly useful.
His lessons are super dense, packed with valuable information. I used to spend about 5 min per TMUA logic question, but with his help, I can now get through most in just 1 min. Plus, he’s incredibly responsive on WhatsApp—he usually replies within a minute and always answers my questions clearly. I’m genuinely grateful for all the progress I’ve made with him!- Yifeng is a very talented student, she just needs to improve her English a little bitTrevor (Tianyu)'s response :

He understands the student and provides work.based on that ,but improving all.along
One.of the bestI studied Physics and Maths with Trevor for my A-levels, and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. He has this amazing way of breaking down really tough concepts so they actually make sense. He’s incredibly patient and would always make sure I fully understood each topic before moving on.
Thanks to his support, I got 2 A*s and 1 A, results I couldn't have reached without him. I’m genuinely grateful for all his help and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve in these subjects.My son Chen learns his A-levels with Trevor, and since then, he made big progress. Trevor's teaching is very clear and engaging, and Chen enjoys the lessons a lot. Trevor is very patient and knows the subjects deeply, which helps Chen understand better and feel more confident and more ready for exams. We are very thankful for Trevor's support in this important time of Chen's education.
Hi, I’m Thorsten Hambach. Since 2021, when I started my GCSE studies, Trevor has been my teacher. His lessons are always engaging and informative, making complex topics in computer science and maths easier to grasp. Trevor has been incredibly supportive, helping me excel not only in my school subjects but also in various competitions like JMC, SMC and BMOs.
Trevor is one of my best friends. He has always been great at helping others with homework and exam preparation, and he explains concepts extremely effectively!
