This role is ideal for education professionals who enjoy working individually with learners and want the flexibility to make a meaningful difference to their academic development, confidence and future opportunities.

You will support pupils who may need additional help with their studies, preparation for examinations, development of essential skills or a gradual return to education. Teaching sessions may take place in pupils' homes, schools or alternative learning environments.

Your Responsibilities

  • Deliver personalised tuition that reflects each learner's educational needs and individual targets.
  • Develop structured learning activities and resources suited to pupils' abilities.
  • Help learners strengthen their understanding, address knowledge gaps and improve academic performance.
  • Evaluate progress and adapt teaching methods to support continued development.
  • Encourage positive learning habits, self-belief and independent thinking.
  • Communicate effectively with parents, schools and relevant professionals.
  • Maintain accurate progress records and comply with safeguarding and child protection procedures.

Experience We Value

Experience supporting pupils with additional needs is particularly welcome, including autism (ASC), ADHD, SEMH, dyslexia, speech, language and communication needs (SLCN), EHCPs, emotional or behavioural difficulties, and gaps in education.
