Inspire, Support and Empower Young Learners!

TP Tutors is expanding its team of dedicated education professionals and is looking for experienced tutors to provide personalised educational support to children and young people throughout Wellingborough.

We are offering flexible tuition assignments for tutors who are passionate about education and understand the importance of adapting their teaching to meet individual needs. You will support pupils who may be struggling academically, require additional help outside mainstream education or need a more personalised approach to learning.

Assignments will involve delivering one-to-one sessions in pupils' homes, schools or alternative educational settings.

Your Role

As a tutor, you will be responsible for:

  • Delivering tailored lessons that reflect each pupil's individual learning needs.
  • Helping learners strengthen subject knowledge and achieve their educational targets.
  • Planning engaging sessions and preparing appropriate teaching resources.
  • Identifying learning difficulties and adjusting teaching strategies accordingly.
  • Tracking progress and providing regular feedback on achievements.
  • Promoting confidence, motivation and positive attitudes towards learning.
  • Supporting pupils with SEND, additional behavioural needs and emotional challenges.
  • Building positive working relationships with families, schools and other professionals.
  • Maintaining high safeguarding standards across all tuition placements.

Areas of Tuition

We are interested in hearing from tutors with experience in:

  • Primary English, Maths and Phonics.
  • Secondary English, Maths and Science.
  • GCSE tuition and examination preparation.
  • Functional Skills and Foundation Learning.
  • Literacy and Numeracy.
  • History, Geography and other Humanities subjects.
  • ICT, Computing and Modern Foreign Languages.
  • SEND specialist support and alternative education.
  • Home tuition and reintegration support.

What We Are Looking For

Successful applicants should have:

  • At least two years of UK teaching or tutoring experience.
  • Previous experience working with children or young people.
  • The ability to deliver structured and stimulating learning sessions.
  • Excellent communication and classroom management skills.
  • A flexible, patient and learner-focused approach.
  • Good organisational and lesson-planning abilities.
  • The ability to travel to assignments in Wellingborough and surrounding areas.
  • An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service or willingness to obtain one.

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

Experience Supporting SEND Learners

We particularly welcome tutors with knowledge or experience of supporting pupils with:

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

What We Offer

  • Flexible assignments to suit your availability.
  • Competitive weekly remuneration.
  • Opportunities to work across different educational settings.
  • Potential for consistent and longer-term placements.
  • A rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful impact on pupils' education and development.

If you are committed to helping children overcome learning barriers and reach their full potential, we would love to hear from you.

Apply today and become part of TP Tutors, supporting and transforming learning opportunities for young people across Wellingborough and the surrounding communities.

All pay rates quoted are inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay.

TP Tutors is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
