Job description

Make a Difference Where It Matters Most – Become a Tutor in Oxfordshire 

Are you an empathetic, patient educator who believes in the power of second chances?

We are looking for dedicated tutors to support vulnerable young people across Oxfordshire, particularly in Witney, Wantage, Bicester, and Didcot, who are currently out of mainstream education. These students may have experienced significant gaps in their learning—but with the right guidance, encouragement, and consistency, they can rediscover confidence and a love for learning.

About the Role
You’ll deliver 1:1 or small group tuition, typically between 9:00am – 3:00pm, helping to rebuild not only academic skills but also trust, motivation, and self-belief. Every session is an opportunity to create a safe, supportive space where progress—no matter how small—is celebrated.

Availability

We ask for a minimum of 10–15 hours per week, with flexibility to fit around your schedule within school hours.

What We’re Looking For

  • Compassionate, empathetic individuals who can build positive relationships
  • Patient and adaptable tutors who tailor lessons to each learner’s unique needs
  • Experienced educators who understand that progress looks different for every young person
  • Confidence supporting students with EHCPs (Education Health Care Plans)
  • Experience working with young people with SEN
  • A genuine passion for helping students see the positives in learning again

Why This Role Matters
For many of our learners, education hasn’t been a positive experience—yet. Your role will be to gently change that narrative. Through creativity, encouragement, and consistency, you’ll help unlock potential and inspire a brighter future.

If you’re ready to make a meaningful impact and be part of a student’s journey back into education, we’d love to hear from you.

All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see the FAQ’s on the Teaching Personnel website for details.
All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date.
Teaching Personnel is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We undertake safeguarding checks on all workers in accordance with DfE statutory guidance ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ this may also include an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted applicants.
We offer all our registered candidates FREE child protection and prevent duty training. All candidates must undertake or have undertaken a valid enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Full assistance provided.
