You will be able to quickly build relationships with children, staff and carers/parents and have an engaging approach to learning. You will need recent relevant tutoring or teaching experience, either in a school or home environment. You will have a passion and desire to ensure all children have equal opportunities and will help provide the best support to these children.

What you'll get in return

You will have flexible hours and the opportunity to work on a flexible timetable based aroud your own availability and commitments. You will benefit from receiving competitive rates of pay and will be assigned a specialist Teaching Personnel Tuition contact to support you on an ongoing basis.
