Primary-Level Tutor – Bury (BL9)
Flexible, rewarding work supporting pupils outside the classroom
£25–£30 per hour | Flexible weekday hours | Home or community-based settings
If you're someone who enjoys helping children build confidence and overcome learning barriers, this could be a really fulfilling role for you.
We’re looking for experienced tutors, teachers or teaching assistants to support pupils across Bury (BL9) who are working at a primary level, even if they’re of secondary age. Many of these learners aren’t currently in mainstream school – this might be due to anxiety, additional needs, or gaps in education – and they need a bit of extra support to help them progress.
This is a chance to work in a more focused, one-to-one environment where you can really make a difference.
What the role involves:
-
Providing personalised English and Maths tuition at a primary level
-
Working with pupils up to age 16 who may be behind expected levels
-
Delivering sessions in the pupil’s home or in local spaces like libraries
-
Creating a positive, calm learning environment that helps build trust
-
Supporting pupils with a range of needs, including SEN or SEMH
Who we’re looking for:
You don’t need to be a qualified teacher, but experience working with children is essential.
You’ll need to feel confident teaching at primary level, and be patient, flexible and encouraging – especially when working with learners who may have had difficult experiences in education.
This role would suit someone who:
-
Has experience teaching or tutoring at KS1 or KS2 level
-
Can adapt lessons to suit individual needs and learning styles
-
Is comfortable working independently and managing their own schedule
-
Has worked with children with additional needs, anxiety, or low confidence
-
Wants to focus on meaningful progress rather than ticking boxes
What you’ll get in return:
-
£25–£30 per hour, depending on your experience
-
The flexibility to work part-time or full-time hours around other commitments
-
The chance to work locally across the Bury area
-
Fewer admin demands than a classroom-based role
-
Ongoing support from a friendly and knowledgeable team
-
Access to training and CPD through our platform
