TP Tutors is looking to recruit passionate and reliable Education Tutors to deliver personalised one-to-one teaching to children and young people across Corby and neighbouring communities.

We are keen to hear from experienced educators who can identify individual learning needs, deliver engaging lessons and help pupils make progress academically and personally.

The role involves supporting learners who require additional tuition, have missed periods of education, need help with GCSE preparation or benefit from a more personalised approach to learning outside a mainstream school environment.

Teaching sessions may take place at pupils' homes, schools or alternative education provisions.

• Help students develop their knowledge and improve their performance in relevant subjects.
• Encourage positive learning behaviours, independence and self-confidence.
• Prepare appropriate teaching resources, exercises and lesson activities.
• Monitor individual progress and maintain clear records of learning outcomes.
• Recognise learning barriers and adjust teaching strategies to suit individual requirements.
• Provide educational assistance to pupils with SEND and behavioural needs.
• Build effective working relationships with parents, schools and external professionals.
• Maintain high safeguarding standards and promote pupil safety and wellbeing.

• Access to transport or the ability to travel to placements throughout Corby and nearby locations.
• An Enhanced DBS registered with the Update Service or willingness to obtain one.

We particularly welcome applications from tutors with experience supporting children with:

• Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).
• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
• Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.
