The Best Private Tutors in Surrey, United Kingdom (2025)

My son joined STS tutoring February of Year 5 after finding his old tutor was unable to work positively with him. I called Yasmin fairly worried that my son would be changing tutors so late in the 11plus journey. She was incredibly supportive and set a date to trial him and see how much he knew. Straight away she told me he was doing so well and he was definitely on the right track. Each week from then on, Yasmin was nothing but kind and positive about his learning. When I had a worry, she took the time to give me reassurance and even ideas of how to improve certain areas of learning. She kept up with last minute changes in the exam criteria and made sure my son had the up to date papers to work from, something other tutors in the area didn’t do. She tailored the work for his weaknesses and went above and beyond to help him feel confident. She also was truthful when she felt he could improve his learning or even his attitude towards the work in any way. My son has a place at Sutton Grammar starting in September 2024 and couldn’t be happier. My younger son will be starting with Yasmin when his journey starts. Yasmin is dedicated, kind and so personal, perfect for our family.

My daughter benefitted so much from Yasmin’s tutoring throughout Year 10 and 11. Yasmin was thorough and patient. She provided practice papers and tips which really supported her understanding and learning, and helped her achieve outstanding GCSE results with Yasmin’s support. Yasmin was also really flexible and accommodating, and I would absolutely recommend her as a tutor.

Yasmin has been an incredible tutor through both my 11+ and GCSE examinations. She has provided invaluable resources (such as past papers, worksheets, predicted papers and more) and has never hesitated to explain a concept I struggled with understanding. She has always challenged my abilities and pushed me to do better when I make silly mistakes! I can say for certain that without Yasmin, I would not have done nearly half as well on both examinations as I would have without her guidance. Thank you for everything!

Yasemin is an experienced and excellent tutor with a kind and calm manner. She effectively covered a huge amount of Maths and English content with my daughter, supporting her through the 11+ process and ensuring she is confident going forward in the transition to secondary school. She gives regular feedback and provides plenty of materials necessary.

My son has been going Local Tutor over a year now. Has now improved his Math and English. Staff are so helpful and lovely :)

Highly recommended. Very Hard working staff. Highly educated and professional. One of key factor also is very flexible. You get more than what you pay. Kids performance has improved at schools.

Fantastic Tutors. My kids love going to Local Tutor and we can see a hugh difference in their learning and confidence. Thank you for everything you guys do to make a positive difference for our future generation.

Amazing place and the best tutoring centre my son really changed academically and the teachers are professional and extremely helpful and focusing on the student progress I highly recommend the local tutor for anyone wants thier kids to succeed in education. Thank you local tutor to be here for my children

Emily has really helped my daughter with her french GCSE preparation. Distance learning can be difficult but the way Emily approaches the lessons means that each lesson is effective but also interesting for my daughter. Her confidence with french has grown considerably

Emily has helped my son weekly with online Spanish lessons. Her friendly manner makes the sessions easy but her structured plans give plenty of focussed content. She is adaptable, often for a last minute test, and is encouraging towards exam revision. Her GCSE knowledge will be invaluable alongside school work.

Emily is by far the best tutor we have ever had. She was so focussed on what my son needed for his GCSE syllabus, and always so supportive and encouraging. This gave him the confidence he needed, especially for the oral exam. Her sessions with him were well thought-out and really helped to boost his progress. He was very dispirited when he started with Emily, but she built him up in such a brilliant way. Emily’s fantastic teaching increased his final result by at least two grades!

Emily is a fantastic language tutor. She has been teaching our 7 year old french for little over a year, and now Wednesday afternoons is our child’s favourite activity of the week! Emily is very enthusiastic and from our experience great with younger children. We would highly recommend this service for any parents looking to further / introduce their children to languages.

Flexible hours and open 6 days a week. Very convenient locatio for me as I can drop kids and go to town fir my shopping. Seen good progress with in 3 months

My daughter struggled with GCSE Science and got U in her mock exam I would like to say a big Thank you to Lina for her support and help. Today my daughter recieved her final GCSE Science exam result and she achieved grade 5. Big improvement and it would not be possible without Lina. Thank you for providing excellent service. Highly recommended

Exceptional tutoring service. I am so happy with the help my brother was given, his grades have already spiked and he looks forward to his lessons. Could not be happier. I highly recommend UTG. Many thanks for sorting it out and looking after him Tahir.

James helped with maths to my sister nice and clear so she could understand. Tremendous help with short notice and wajeeha was very friendly which made it very easy to arrange the sessions.

Having decided we would like the help of a tutor for our daughter for her GCSEs we were a little lost, but thankfully found Tahir! He is a lovely, calm and patient tutor who on a 1 to 1 basis was excellent our daughter. Without him she would have never gone from a grade 3 to a grade 6, we would highly recommend him to anybody in need of a maths or science tutor! Mr and Mrs Stone

A highly valuable resource than genuinely helped my son in his A-levels. I'd suggest you carefully pick your tutor because 'fit' is as important as qualifications. I'd recommend this service to others.

We used Grove Tutors for three months to help our daughter build her confidence before moving to a new school. Nick found the perfect tutor for her and she found herself excited about maths and science for the first time in a long time. The tutor tailored their sessions to address specific areas that our daughter needed help with, so every minute of each session was useful. In a short time, our daughter made massive progress and quickly felt ready for her new school.

Grove tutors have provided us with two tutors for my daughter, and both have been great! They go out of their way to find the best match for your requirements making the whole process stress free.

Clarissa has been tutoring our daughter in both Maths and English for over a year now and we can highly recommend her services. As a result of her work our daughter has gained confidence in both subjects and has moved up to top set in Maths. She has a warm and relatable style of teaching which meant our daughter felt immediately at ease. Clarissa has been able to adapt her lessons to compliment the current curriculum being studied by our daughter

As a mature student , Haleema had prepared me for the GCSE English language 2024 exams. Her method of teaching in group sessions and 1-1 is unfaltered, professional and she makes sure you understand the content and will help you to get the higher marks subject to you putting in the effort too. Every single penny spent on tuition was worth it! Even though, the tuition is online Haleema delivered the sessions in such a way where she made sure everyone engaged together from the weakest to the strongest student. If you miss anything or do not understand you always have full access to the online portal where you can review the online recorded revision sessions as much as you like. Make sure you take advantage of doing past papers and getting them marked by Haleema as you are getting written responses from a professional examiner with 8+ years of experience. If you want to succeed, Haleema is the way forward!!

Haleema has been tutoring my year 10 child. She is very experienced, engaging and patient. She has adapted her teaching due to my child’s learning needs, and has in her own time prepared useful recourses to help my child as needed due to child’s learning needs. My child looks forward to their lesson- this is only due to the great work Haleema has done with them. A very happy parent.

Haleema at HH Tutoring has been an absolute Godsend for my son. In this past year working with her, my son’s English language skills, GCSE exam technique and overall confidence have come on by leaps and bounds. Haleema broke down the core skills required and worked patiently through them with him. She provided templates that he could follow and revisit again and again, which was essential as my son requires a clear structure to learn at his best. English Language is the subject he found the most challenging of all his GCSEs, yet with Haleema’s support, his skills are now secure. We’re confident that there will be cause to celebrate over his English grade on results day. More importantly, I know that Haleema has taught him lifelong writing, comprehension and inference skills that will help him at A-level and beyond. Thank you Haleema!

January 2024, and my daughter is struggling with her GCSE results. Mocks hadn't gone great and I asked a friend for help. A friend of a friend recommended Haleema. Her work with my daughter exceeded expectations. An A* and A in English GCSE later, I would recommend HH tutoring without hesitation.

Mark has been excellent for our son, helping him study for secondary school exams. He is an excellent tutor who makes studying fun, so much so that our son kept on his weekly sessions after his exams.

Mark has been my tutor since year 4 and I'm about to go to RGS. He is a great tutor because he can help you with anything you're struggling with and push you further.

Never a five-star review has been more well deserved than this one for Mark at Guildford Tuition. My 10 year old daughter has just been offered a place for Year 7 at one of the top schools for girls in Surrey. This would not have been possible without the incredible work Mark has done with her over the past year. Not only she has passed the 11+ entrance exams, but also with excellent results and a very positive feedback from the School. From his fun (but rigorous) approach to learning, to his superb strategising and bespoke support to ensure she confidently and successfully sat the entrance exams. Past the exams, she will continue learning and growing her skills with Mark. I cannot recommend Mark more to any parent who is committed to their children's education and future success. Thank You Very Much!

We couldn't recommend Mark more highly. His patience and skill at explaining concepts clearly has been critical in helping both our children succeed, but most of all in building confidence in their abilities.

We are new to the UK. My daughter never learned English. After she joined Kumon she start to say words and now it's been 6month, now she is talking to people with confidence(still need to improve). Even her teacher at her school said she improved so fast. Thanks to Kumon in Guildford, we had very nice experiences with it and all staff are very nice and teacher are so patient. Once again let my daughter go to kumon is very good choice I made.

My girls have been doing Kumon with Duhita and her team for more than 13 months now. The confidence they have in problem solving, in their course work and the accolades they receive from their teachers at school is amazing! True testimonial of the power of small steps every day ! Kumon is a discipline, Kumon is building habit. Thank you Duhita and team for all your support and help

My two children have had Kumon maths lessons from the age of 7 and 4 respectively. They are now 15 and 12. Kumon has been a massive part of their success. Not only are they considerably advanced for their age at maths, the confidence it has given them has boosted their performance across all subjects. Kumon lessons are great value and the support offered has been so professional yet kind and child-centred. Thank you Duhita and team!

Enrolling your child in Kumon is an excellent way to create discipline and interest in reading and maths. My child was in a different Kumon center prior to us moving to this location, and we have to say its been a fantastic experience here. Duhita and her team cater the work not only to a childs academic growth but also take into account personal and social development. I highly recommend enrolling your children in this particular location.

Mark has really helped my two children gain confidence in their work. He is such an approachable man, very helpful and really cares about the children. Thank you Mark for all your help. Sally and Simon
