The Best Private Tutors in Lyndhurst, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Our Son originally started a year ago (yr 3) to assist with his handwriting but he also has an appetite for learning, especially maths. He went from 'needing improvement' with his handwriting to becoming first in his class to receive a pen licence :-). He still attends weekly as he enjoys coming here and its a great way to stay on top of his learning getting that one on one time that schools just simply cannot provide. I highly recommend I Love to Learn, they work well with the children and keep you constantly updated with their progress which was just what I was looking for.

I highly recommend Love to Learn. Two of my children are receiving maths tuition once a week and have just completed the first term. The goal was for our children to start senior school with as much confidence as possible with their maths skills so they never felt behind others making this transition in their schooling. Howard carried out a rigorous initial assessment to ascertain their starting points, from which the excellent tutor (Grazia) planned a programme to support them specifically at their level. I'm very pleased that after their first session both our children said it was very worthwhile and enjoyable - I didn't anticipate this so was thrilled it was the case. Our children quickly developed their skills and confidence and as a result, achieved very well in their two first term assessments. This was a good confidence boost and has placed them in a good maths set. The tutoring is helpful, supportive, but also challenging which is essential for the children to achieve rapid progress. Love to Learn comes highly recommended.

I took my 5 year old daughter here for a free assessment following her end of year school report. My husband and I were very pleased that we were given honest feedback by Howard, who was thorough and professional. We were dubious as to whether or not our daughter’s abilities might be played down to encourage us to pay for future sessions, but I am delighted that this was not the case at all. We really appreciated this honesty, and I would absolutely recommend the free assessment to get objective feedback on how your child is performing academically. I would definitely use I Love to Learn for any future tutoring for my daughter.

Our son has improved in such a rapid time that one can not but be impressed by the efficacy of their teachings. After receiving son's annual school report we became the happiest parents ever. One of the most valuable decision we made choosing I love to Learn Team. We're grateful.

The tuition my daughter received was professional, and well planned. The tutor was friendly and approachable. My daughter was coached though practice exams and given tips to help her. Thanks to the Tutor Agency she achieved GCSE grade 8 in both English Language and Geography.

Our daughter has loved going to her tutoring sessions with Nicola. Nicola teaches in an engaged and positive manner which created the atmosphere for our daughter to thrive in terms of both academics and personal confidence.

Nicola is an excellent tutor and we highly recommend. She successfully tutored our son to pass the 11+ exam. Our son enjoyed her sessions and looked forward to attending each week. The sessions were engaging and spot on in content and the exam preparation made sure our son felt calm and focused on the day. We will definitely use Nicola again for our second child.

Nicola at Forest 1st Tutoring managed to work wonders in getting our daughter up to speed in time for the 11+ exam. We left it very late in the day to start preparing and Nicola agreed to tutor across the summer term and summer holidays - primarily using group work with additional one-on-one sessions on top. The transformation in our daughter’s confidence and attainment was amazing. The tutoring would have been worthwhile regardless of the outcome as not only has she achieved a solid pass in the 11+, she has also been really well set up to make a happy and confident start to year 6.

I highly recommend Nicola and her team they're amazing! Nicola has a unique and impressive teaching style. My son has looked forward to and enjoyed every session (even after a day at school!) which has built his confidence in sitting exams as well as broadening his understanding and knowledge vastly. Nicola has also been super helpful with any questions I’ve had and has provided many useful resources and materials to work on at home. Thank you so much Nicola!

I would like to thank Tom for all the support he gave me during my A level Biology course. I achieved an A in my A level Biology exam. The A level Biology group lessons were very informative. Along with the information provided in the lesson, Tom used active recall to test us on our knowledge and engaged us in the lesson which deepened my understanding and retention of A level Biology concepts. Furthermore, when we answered long question types we would use an interactive whiteboard to answer the questions, and he would regularly check our work and provide areas of improvement for our answers. Thank you so much Tom for all your support during my A level Biology course and exam.

Tom helped me so much when it came to understanding the true depth to biology as a subject . He is a very supportive and kind teacher who helped me to not only gain knowledge , but also enjoy studying biology. I had a great experience being one of his students and I improved immensely due to his guidance.

Tom is an experienced and knowledgeable biology tutor with enough teaching materials. His style of teaching breaks down complex concepts into understandable principles. My daughter achieved a top grade in biology. We would highly recommend him!

I would highly recommend Tom for A-Level Biology tutoring. Each lesson was well-structured and the content covered in the hour was thorough and efficient. He made it very helpful to break down difficult concepts in an easy way to understand. He also allowed time for exam questions, which helped me a lot with my application to exam questions. Thank you for all your help!

I wanted to review before my son gets his results back as largely the outcome is irrelevant to my feedback. Over the past months Anne has worked with Alf in a supportive and encouraging way. Stretching him for sure, but offering guidance, feedback and tutoring at an appropriate level through each stage of his learning journey. In that time I’ve seen his confidence and ability sky rocket and the complexity of the problems he’s now approaching are far in excess of what he was capable of last December. Throughout the process Anne has kept my son and I updated and informed, steered his independent learning to key areas he needed to strengthen and allowed him to shoot for a much higher target than - by his own admission - he ever expected to be capable of. I would highly recommend Rutherford Maths Tutoring in support of your or your child’s learning. Really first class. Menu, many thanks. David & Alfred.

Super tutor! Quick to respond, very helpful, warm and welcoming as well as flexible. Gave my son confidence and differentiated so he could learn and knew the curriculum well. My son really enjoyed working with Anne. We are truly grateful.🙏

My daughter has gained confidence in Maths since starting tutoring in Maths with Rutherford Tutoring. Anne always provides clear feedback and goals, excellent communication. She finds the best way of working with my daughter. My daughter has said she now understands areas of maths that she didn’t understand through learning at school. We are very happy with the improvement in school grades and the increased confidence that these sessions have given our daughter.

Anne is an exceptional teacher. My son went to her for support with his further maths GCSE and he thoroughly enjoyed his lessons. Anne explained everything is detail and my son’s confidence with further maths has grown considerably. I highly recommend Anne’s service.

What can i say, I feel we have found the perfect tutor. Maths GCSE Chess Physics We had been struggling with our year 6 son for a couple of years as he has a natural aptitude for mathematics and was not getting any challenge from school and disengaging. After talking with numerous tutors i found Tim and had the most positive engaging conversation and his passion was unbelievable. The relationship our Son and Tim have developed is truly amazing, so much so that we have now increased lessons to include chess and Physics.......If Tim taught sewing i am sure Oscar would engage 100% he is just that kind of guy that make everything interesting. Our son is now looking to take his Maths GCSE a few years early and that is all down to Tim. he is now engaged, passionate and looks forward to every lesson. Communication is fantastic, we have regular conversations and a lot of discussions about direction and progress. Hands down the best investment we could be making for our Son ( Daughter to start shortly!!)

We would highly recommend Tim and his team of fantastic teachers. We discovered that our 15 year old son was well behind in his Maths and Science six months before his GCSE exams. He was also going through a difficult period in school at the time. Tim, Sonja and Mustapha were very positive and encouraging and patient with him. Our son also found the lessons with them to be interesting and engaging and he was able to focus the whole time. He became the top of his set within 3 months of starting lessons with them which boosted his confidence massively before his GCSE exams. We couldn't thank you enough Tim, Sonja and Mustapha.

We are so pleased that we contacted Tim to support our 12 year old son’s Maths learning. After some negative experiences of Maths in Year 6 and year 7, his confidence in Maths was low. He had been moved down a group after a low test result and many changes of teacher in Year 7. After an initial chat with Tim, I was so impressed with his knowledge and understanding of Maths learning. Straight away, he was able to build our son’s confidence and he started going from strength to strength. Soon, he was achieving top marks in tests and was top of his class. Consequently, he was moved up a group and is doing brilliantly. He is loving Maths again too. We can’t thank Tim enough and will certainly be contacting him again in the future

Tim has made a huge difference in my daughter's A-Levels maths. She was really struggling to understand the jump from GCSE to A-Levels maths. Her teachers at school went through the lessons very quickly. Tim explained all the topics my daughter found difficult. As a result she went from a B to A☆. This enhanced her confidence. Tim has a very personable and easy teaching approach. I recommend him highly

Two of my kids attending explore learning for the last few month. So far I am very happy very with the progress. My children relaxed now as I dont have to seat and shout during home study. We all happy .

My daughter has enjoyed her experience overall and her confidence in maths has improved. The only area which could be improved on is making sure the tutors are the same each week, as she really had one tutor that she liked a lot with his style of teaching. Thank you so much Explore Learning and if circumstances change in the future we will be back!

I am very impressed with Explore Learning. Let me provide a real life scenario how Explore Learning helped my Srihan to reach where we intended. - I enrolled Srihan 2 years back in Explore Learning. He was doing OK at that point but needed improvement. Our main intention was for 11+ and we were targeting grammar school nearby. - Within next 2-3 months, I saw the improvement. His accuracy improved and it can be tracked so easily from parents portal. It showed exactly where Srihan belong , where he improved and where he need to focus more. - Srihan appeared 11+ this year and he passed with a very high score (significantly above the cut off) in both the grammar school he appeared for. Explore learning believes in practice. Skills especially NVR where speed and accuracy can be maximized through practice and Explore Learning provides the exact learning platform to achieve that. Thanks Explore Learning!

Can’t rate the team enough. Jess and Alicia are fantastic with my child and have brought together a fabulous support team in their tutors. My child has found both in centre and online to be really enjoyable, and she actually wants to do it. It’s really boosted her confidence in the areas she struggled with as well as encouraging her to push herself in areas she has already mastered.

Arzoo is an amazing Maths tutor, she helps boost confidence and understanding. I highly recommend her!

Sumit has been tutoring our daughter for her economics a-level. We have seen a huge improvement in her confidence and ability around the topic. She really enjoys her sessions with Sumit who engages with her really well and challenges her appropriately to make sure she is progressing well.

Aarzoo, is an great tutor and has been able to compact down GCSE maths (resist) topics too make them more understandable which has helped in my maths revision . She has also helped how I approach the exam and has given me more confidence in a short amount of time since I have only had tutoring for less than 2 months.

Aarzoo is an excellent Maths tutor, and has tutored all three of my children. She has given them the confidence and skills needed to improve their understanding of Maths, thus allowing them to achieve higher GCSE results. She is patient and understanding of each child’s needs and instructs them accordingly. I highly recommend getting in touch with Aarzoo for your child’s Maths tutoring.

Having had a few lessons now, I can definitely recommend Alla for her language tutoring. Lessons are well planned, with the subjects adapting to my needs and any questions that arise. It is something I'll be carrying on with.

Alla has successfully tutored both my children German for GCSE level. They both really enjoy their sessions with Alla and the creative way she builds links in the language. Alla provides a structured style but balances this with also being flexible and adaptable to cover specific topics as needed.

In hindsight, my approach to learning German lacked structure. Having tried several tutors, all of whom never managed to instil confidence in my speaking ability, I soon felt dejected. That all changed when I started with Borderless Tutoring. Alla is very good at pinpointing areas that I find tricky. When things just do not sink in, she always creatively finds ways to help me grasp the idea. Her lessons are really well-thought-out and they have a clear direction - I can see each session nicely building on the previous one. Most importantly though, her lessons are fun! Already, my speaking has come on by leaps and bounds, and I feel her rigorous approach to grammar is certainly paying off. I would strongly encourage anyone searching around for tutors to not waste their time and choose Borderless, because Alla has done wonders for my German. Cannot recommend more!

Alla is a superb tutor. Having expertly guided our daughter through her GCSE German to achieve a grade 8! Her lessons are prepared, targeted perfectly, very friendly and engaging. Excellent communication with us parents! Would highly recommend. Thanks Alla for all your support.

My son has been attending the GCSE maths drop in sessions since the beginning of year 11. I only wish he had started in year 10! We added an extra 1 to 1 session in the run up to the GCSEs for an extra boost. Issac and Sean are fantastic teachers. My son has improved so much. Both Issac and Sean explain things in a way that he understands and at his pace. 100% recommend.

My daughter has been attending First Class Learning Eastleigh for over 15 months now and her improvements are incredible! She lost so much confidence during lockdown but now has caught up and is excelling at both maths and English. Both she and I feel much more confident as she approaches Year 6 SATs and secondary school challenges next September. I would highly recommend Allison and her team to anyone who is looking to give their child's education or confidence a boost!

My son joined First class learning, Eastleigh 6 months back, his progress in maths and English has been excellent and as a result his confidence has improved significantly. Allison, who heads up the centre, really takes the time & effort to support the children and most importantly encourages their passion for learning through her teaching practise. I’d thoroughly recommend Allison and her team.

My son has had a well-structured home learning experience thanks to Allison and her colleagues. They provided a tailored education and kept my son interested in his studies. His weekly zoom lessons were also entertaining and educational. Throughout the week, they were always there to answer any questions. I strongly advise you to use First Class Learning. They provide an excellent service.
