In spite of what some say about "false" fingerings, you sometimes need to do what works. Until your fingers get fast enough, use the T3-T23-T3. The downside is that you have to take the time during practice to learn the alternate fingerings for each passage that requires it. In a piece I'm playing there's a trill on 4th space E: E-D#... Even the experienced amateurs were having trouble with T2-T1 because they didn't know the alternate fingering T3-T23, which comes out a lot cleaner.
