I believe the answer is:

his

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'than you need here' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun but the answer is a plural noun.

'this is' is the wordplay.
'HIS' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I'm unsure how the hidden word is indicated.

'more' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for his that I've seen before include "that chap's" , "That man's" , "Belonging to the male" , "It belongs to him" , "Belonging to that man" .)
