Looking for flexible education work where your time and experience can have a real impact?

TP Tutors is recruiting experienced Teachers, Tutors and SEND Educators to provide tailored one-to-one tuition to children and young people across Peterborough and surrounding areas.

You'll work with learners who may need additional academic support, confidence building, exam preparation, or specialist SEND tuition. Sessions can take place in homes, schools and alternative education settings, giving you the opportunity to create a learning environment that works for each individual pupil.

Every learner has different needs. Your role will be to understand those needs and deliver tuition that helps them move forward.

You may be supporting pupils with:

• Primary and Secondary curriculum
• GCSE preparation and subject support
• Functional Skills
• Literacy and Numeracy
• SEND and additional learning needs
• Alternative Provision
• Education gaps and re-engagement

You'll plan purposeful sessions, adapt your teaching style, monitor progress and provide useful feedback after each lesson.

Most importantly, you'll help learners develop confidence, independence and a positive attitude towards education.

English • Maths • Science • Literacy • Numeracy • Functional Skills • Primary • GCSE Subjects • Humanities • MFL • Computing • Creative Arts • Other National Curriculum Subjects
