Client Testimonials

“I have had the pleasure of working with Karim in two very different school settings. In both establishments he has captured the interest and enthusiasm of our young people and parents and, in doing so, opened an incredibly valuable dialogue surrounding independent study skills.
As members of teaching staff, we now have a consistent model for facilitating student revision.”

Charlotte EdwardsEnglish Dept. - Summerhill School

“I cannot emphasise enough the impact having someone so charismatic and unteacherlike come in to work with our young people has. Working with half a year group at a time – some 80 students he takes them through two hours of brain science and learning techniques whilst holding their attention effortlessly. Following staff requests that he do the same workshop for them, his methods are now an intrinsic part of how our students learn.”

Mary MasseyDeputy Principal - The Priory School

“We at Aimhigher London have worked with Enlighten Education for the past few years consistently as they bring a style of delivery that appeals to the modern learner – being in one of their sessions is always interesting and makes our learners really reflect on what they can achieve – their style is innovative, energised and motivating. Feedback from schools and university partners involved has always been consistently positive to their sessions so much so it has led to our partners booking EE directly. We value Enlighten Education as a core deliverer on our activities and would not hesitate to recommend them.”

Lucia ByrneLearner Progression Programme Manager - Aimhigher London

“St Mary’s University’s Widening Participation Team works with hundreds of learners from various backgrounds. To help provide them with different opportunities and outlooks. We have worked with Enlighten for over 3 years now and each time, the students he works with come out of his sessions with more confidence and a better understanding of how they can adapt their learning to fit them as a person. Karim shows students that learning is versatile and each one of them has the ability to excel when they set their mind to it and find the right method for them.”

Katharina StegmannSenior Widening Participation and Outreach Officer - St Mary’s University

“This is the second time we have invested in the workshops delivered by Enlighten Education. On each occasion the students and staff found their memory workshop accessible, thoroughly engaging and ultimately purposeful in them becoming more effective learners. We also invited parents in for a session after school and all of those who attended felt it would help them support their children.”

Jenny HornsbyVice Principal - Salendine Nook High School

“Karim has never failed to deliver highly engaging workshops that have enabled students to very quickly learn about the power of their memory and the best ways to harness this. He has just the right approach to captivate his audience and both students and parents are fulsome in their praise of what they have learned.”

Jane McDonaldHead of Sixth Form - Northampton School for Girls

“We invited Enlighten Education to work with our Year 10 students. Each group arrived for the workshop and were captured right from the very start of the session, they left with a buzz and a belief that they all had the capacity to learn and to remember information. Staff who were not teaching began dropping in to see what all the fuss was about and were duly impressed.”

Loraine AtkinsonKey Stage 4 Raising Achievement Coordinator - Thorp Academy

“We are always looking at ways in which our academy can improve grades. In particular we are aim to motivate our C/D borderline students. Enlighten immediately grabbed the students' attention with his motivational presentations. His presentations were excellent and thought provoking, with students responding well and thoroughly engaged in the tasks and what was said. Karim was able to engage the students by giving relevant information and did not talk above the students’ heads.”

Garry TophamAssistant Head - Shirebrook Academy

“What a fantastic event! Tailored exactly to the needs of our students, they were enthused with a new-found desire to revise for their exams and improve on their past achievements.”

Samantha GoddardHead of English - Montsaye Academy

“Thank you so much for the session last week – it went down really well and the students were all talking about it in their final presentations. They really seemed to have picked up useful revision hints and seemed really fired up.”

Emily CollinsSenior Widening Participation and Outreach Officer - Royal Holloway University

“I have worked with Enlighten Education for the past 3 years; I never get tired of listening to all the great ideas and brilliant study tips. Thank you so much for being so flexible and helping deliver sessions that are tailor-made to suit the needs of our different cohorts.”

Corinne WalkerDeputy Head - John O' Gaunt School

“All pupils were engaged in his sessions, even the disaffected (!!!), everyone got something positive out of the session.
I would recommend their programmes to any school as a must!
Staff have requested a Pd day session, where Enlighten can give the staff techniques to support their work further with in school.”

Jeannette ReaneyPHSE Co-ordinator - The Corbet School

“Very accommodating presenter. Will fit it with your needs. Students and staff thought he was great! We will definitely use Enlighten again!”

Emma StevensonAssistant Head - Idsall School

“It is true to say, and not an exaggeration, that audiences are engaged and captivated by his presentations that are fun, informative and insightful. His messages and tips for learning are invaluable and have long-term impact on the educational lives of young people studying GCSE and A level”
