Make a Difference in a Young Person's Learning Journey!

TP Tutors is looking for passionate, reliable and experienced tutors to support children and young people across Coventry and neighbouring areas.

We are seeking individuals who can provide tailored one-to-one tuition, helping learners overcome educational barriers, develop their knowledge and build confidence. You may be supporting pupils who need additional help with their studies, are preparing for GCSE examinations, have experienced gaps in their education or benefit from a more personalised learning approach.

Tuition sessions may take place in pupils' homes, schools or alternative education settings.

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver individualised lessons in line with each pupil's learning needs and targets.
  • Help learners develop their academic skills, subject knowledge and confidence.
  • Prepare engaging lesson plans and appropriate learning materials.
  • Adapt teaching strategies to suit different abilities and learning styles.
  • Monitor progress and maintain clear records of learning outcomes.
  • Encourage participation, motivation and independent learning.
  • Provide appropriate support to pupils with SEND, behavioural and emotional needs.
  • Maintain positive communication with parents, schools and relevant professionals.
  • Follow safeguarding requirements and promote a safe learning environment.

Subjects and Areas of Support

We welcome applications from tutors with experience in:

  • Primary English, Maths and Reading.
  • Secondary English, Maths and Science.
  • GCSE preparation and revision.
  • Functional Skills, Literacy and Numeracy.
  • Humanities, including History and Geography.
  • Computing and Modern Foreign Languages.
  • Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
  • Home Education and Alternative Provision.

Essential Skills and Experience

To be successful in this role, you should have:

  • At least two years of teaching or tutoring experience in the UK.
  • Experience supporting primary or secondary-aged pupils.
  • Confidence in planning and delivering effective learning sessions.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Good organisational and time-management abilities.
  • A patient, adaptable and encouraging approach.
  • The ability to travel to assignments across Coventry and surrounding areas.
  • An Enhanced DBS registered with the Update Service or willingness to obtain a new DBS check.

QTS, PGCE or an equivalent teaching qualification would be advantageous but is not essential.

SEND Experience

Experience supporting learners with additional needs would be particularly beneficial, including:

  • Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).
  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
  • Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.
  • Dyslexia and dyspraxia.
  • Speech, language and communication needs.
  • Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance (EBSNA).

What We Offer

  • Flexible assignments to match your availability.
  • Competitive weekly pay.
  • Opportunities across home tuition, schools and alternative provision.
  • Potential for long-term placements and permanent opportunities.
  • A rewarding role where you can positively influence children's learning and development.
