Best Private Tutors in Northfleet, Kent (2025)

Rating: 5 / 5

My son has been attending Kumon (Northfleet branch) since November 2023. He had a passion for maths and it was something I wanted to explore and I am so pleased I did as he has just got better and better and still loves to work out calculations. Although the daily (almost) routine of doing it can be hard he understands that his hard work has paid off and was so pleased to achieve an award at the recent Kumon awards ceremony. Kat and her team are patient and constructive with feedback and I’m always pleased with their commitment to teaching him and ensuring it still remains a fun and positive experience. Thoroughly recommend!

My children have always attended Kumon from a very young age, but as they started doing higher level of studies, studying became more challenging & complex, especially Maths. They were given minimal or no support in their centre. They started losing interest in learning & so I decided it was time to move centres. Since they started at the Kumon Gravesend and Northfleet Centre, there has been a great turnaround in their learning, and I am glad I made the decision to move my kids when I did. Thanks to Kat and her team for all the support, dedication & commitments toward the learning of my children. Your enthusiasm for teaching is truly inspiring. Now my children enjoy learning again 😀 Marvin

My daughter started Kumon using paper booklets and recently moved over to the iPad (which was so easy and straightforward). I can’t believe how much of a massive difference this has made to her progress as she’s now working faster and making less mistakes on the iPad. It’s also made my life so much easier as I no longer have to mark it as the iPad does all that. She was finding it tedious on paper and was getting frustrated. But now she’s happy to do her kumon every evening on the iPad and I’ve seen a difference in her school work too. Thank you to Kat for making the change from paper to iPad so easy and always being so helpful. I’m truly seeing growth in my daughters learning development.

We used GTA for 11+ tuition. Assam was great. My daughter was a BIG fan of his teaching methods - not so much of the homework he set though! HA! She loved the lessons and found them very helpful. What I liked about most about these guys is the honest assessment of your child's abilities. On my first meeting with Shahnaz, she was very open in telling me that if she didn't think my child was capable of doing the 11+, she would tell me straight and that it would be unfair to put pressure on a child if it is clear they are not up to it. I really liked that. There was never any pressure to book lessons either. I was also very grateful for all the tips and advice Shahnaz gave me - as the parent, supporting my child's learning - which I found invaluable, especially moving forward as "it doesn't stop here" Shahnaz quite rightly said. So all-in-all, great service, I would highly recommend them.

We are absolutely delighted with the results! My daughter passed all four of the 11+ exams (Bexley, Medway, Kent and Mayfield) she took, and we owe a huge thanks to Gravesend Tutoring Academy. Their structured, tailored approach made a world of difference. The tutors not only helped strengthen her academic skills but also boosted her confidence throughout the process. The lessons were engaging, well-organized, and focused on the areas she needed most. I highly recommend Gravesend Tutoring Academy to any parent looking for exceptional support and guidance for their child’s 11+ preparation.

What more could you ask Would definitely use again if needed in the future or for my other children. 10/10 service in our experience.

We cannot thank the all Gravesend Tutoring Academy team enough, specifically Asam and Shahnaz. My son started November last year and until September this year he had amazing lessons, revisions and mocks. We’ ve noticed great improvements even after few weeks he started with GTA. We appreciate the time and dedication you put into your lessons. Our child has shown great improvements with each topics and passed Kent Test with good scores. Shahnaz and Asam always there to help for students and for parents with best advice and guidance. I’m happy to find you and highly recommend to everyone. Thank you

Vibiha has been outstanding in providing group tuition lessons for my daughter leading up to her 11+ exam. Lessons are extremely thorough, based around the papers and she has always taken my daughters ability into account . The lessons are tailored to enhance and grow knowledge and ability to take the exams and pass. My daughter has passed Kent, Medway, Bexley and Mayfield. I don’t think we would have achieved such a score without our weekly lessons with Vibiha. I cannot recommend her enough.

Vibha is an amazing tutor. My daughter was struggling seriously with maths and with just 3 months till GCSE exams, we found Vibha. She taught her and also supported her mentally telling her she can do it. She just got her result and she passed!!! Thanks so much Vibha xx

My son studied with Mrs Vibha and got into gravesend grammer school for boys. I am very grateful for her teaching, I changed three teachers before I found her, and finally decided on Mrsvibha, she is very responsible, follow up the students' homework, and communicate with the parents in time about their children's inactivity!

I would highly recommend Mrs Thind for 11+ tuition. She is an amazing teacher. She taught my 2 girls and they both passed their test with flying colours. We can not thank her enough.

Rating: 5 / 5

Mrs Thind is simply an outstanding teacher. Both my daughters took tuition with her, and I'm thrilled to say they passed their Kent and Medway tests with impressive marks. I’m incredibly grateful for her support. Her dedication and tireless efforts truly brought out the best in my children, guiding them to excel and inspiring them to reach their full potential. Mrs Theild consistently encourages and motivates her students, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about each child’s success. I couldn’t have asked for a better tutor. Thank you ever so much, Mrs Thind.

The best Tutor! Gave my son so much confidence to pass his 11+. Her no nonsense, old school approach worked a treat! Fantastic at providing feedback and advice on progress/development. A true gem of a tutor. I certainly will be bringing my younger son to her in the near future too. Thank you very much, Mrs Thind

Serena’s approach to learning is brilliant. My son doesn’t feel pressured about learning; he loves her approach and looks forward to attending the Tuesday lesson after school each week. We never have to ask him to do his homework, and he will get upset if the weekend is so busy and packed and he doesn't get the time to do his homework from Serena’s session. He would wake up early, unprompted by us, saying I must do my homework, not from fear or anything but from a place of joy in learning and a sense of completing his homework. I’m thankful to Serena that her approach eliminates any fear of learning. She makes it fun and challenging, so my son feels like he has achieved something when he understands something he didn't initially or previously understand. As parents, we get an update on our son’s performance and progress each week. What he did well, he needs to focus on and even say if he needs 1:1 support with any particular area of the learning. I wish her approach to education was how schools delivered their learning instead of how they do that. Her focus is on each child as an individual and their stage of learning. So, the teaching is tailored to the individual child's ability rather than the approach at school, which doesn’t challenge each child and where they are in their learning stage. Schools teach to the common denominator, while Serena teaches to the individual child’s level and ability. I would HIGHLY recommend Serena’s tuition approach.

Rating: 5 / 5

Serena's attention to detail and lesson planning is second to none. Her enthusiasm is contagious and she has helped my daughter become more confident in all aspects of her learning. She makes her children feel like individuals and caters to their needs. I would not hesitate in recommending her!

We are so pleased with the progress our daughter has made since starting her 11-plus sessions with Serena. She’s an amazing tutor, and our daughter genuinely looks forward to every session. The lessons are engaging, enjoyable, and have made such a difference in her confidence and skills. We really appreciate Serena’s detailed feedback after each session, it’s incredibly helpful. It gives us a clear idea of what our daughter is doing well in and where she needs a little extra focus. We are seeing great results so far, and our daughter is very happy too!

My two boys started with Serena in September and they absolutely love the sessions. Serena makes learning fun and engages with the children so well. I have two very different little learners and Serena caters well to their individual needs. I love the detailed feedback, it’s great to know how they are doing each week and areas we need to work on. Thank you, Serena!

My son had been struggling with his Math and reading but since he started attending First class learning, there's been a great improvement in his learning. They have really supported him on his journey to getting better at phonics, recognising words, phonics, math and doing his working independently. This is very encouraging for us has parents and we are glad that our son feels motivated towards his studies.

Rating: 5 / 5

Excellent tuition provided by professionals with meticulous and well-organised study materials. I can vouch for the efficiency and dedication you feel about First Class Learning as a parent from my personal experience of sending my younger son for 11-Plus coaching. He passed with flying colours and has been offered a place in the local grammar school he was dreaming about for long! Now my elder son also started going to Gravesend centre for his GCSE tuition and hope he would repeat the success story. I am quite thankful and very happy to say that Dr Vipula Malhotra, the centre manager has been instrumental in fulfilling my son's cherished ambition. We wish all the success for First Class Learning.

Rating: 5 / 5

I highly recommend for 11 plus tutoring! Dr Vipula’s structured and consistent approach enhanced my child's understanding across all subjects. She provided valuable tips and strategies that helped to achieve success. Thank you for your dedication and expertise!

My children started kumon at an early age and it gave them a solid foundation not just in their academic work, but also in time management, ability to focus and more. I am extremely impressed with the service I received whilst at kumon. If I had to do it again, I would start earlier, age 3 (my kids started at age 4 and 6). Dola

This Kumon Centre has a formula that seems to work, I have two children who have progressed through the various early levels, that whole team are very patient and understanding particularly for early learners. The work can become cumbersome for the children however the instructors introduce new ways to keep them engaged and motivated. They have been very understanding during the pandemic and offered support when required. The regular communication keeps me in the loop, certainly looking forward to physical classes when they open back up.

Rating: 5 / 5

I cannot praise this centre enough. Julia and the staff are very well organised and are always ready to help with any queries. Whilst set up in a Kumon format, they also recognise that every student is an individual. With this recognition there is always support with more challenging topics as well as topics that a student may breeze through! The whole set up is so efficient and I have never struggled to get into contact or communicate with the team. Julia motivates students to do their best, even after a long day at school, she really understands them and as a result the parents and students respect the hard work that takes place from both sides.

Rating: 5 / 5

As a student who completed the Maths programme at this centre, with ease I am able to say it was one of the best decisions my parents have made for me. The skills I have acquired over the years, helped throughout my school education as well as normal life, as it has made me a more disciplined student and has helped to develop a good work ethic. More importantly the staff, especially the instructor supported me every step of the way and I couldn't have done it without them!
