Tutor

• Are you passionate about making a real difference in a young person’s life?
• Can you offer encouragement and support to young people, delivering engaging tuition?
• Are you experienced working with children with ASD, ADHD and PDA?
• Are you caring and supportive in your approach, yet firm when needed?
• Do you drive?

TeacherActive work in partnership with the local authority to support young people who are currently out of education for wide variety of reasons or needs.

I am currently recruiting for a tutor to support a young person of primary age, Year 4, who is working below his expected levels, mainly KS1.

He presents with PDA, has a diagnosis of ADHD and ASD & Hypermobility.

This young person enjoys reading, can communicate well but will often revert to physical gestures or noises to alert a safe adult as to their needs and wants. He grips his pen with a palm grip and has some anxiety around this and learning in general.

He will respond to a tutor who is male, who is experienced and professional with a calm and patient demeanour yet can be firm when needed.

We are looking for a dedicated and compassionate tutor to support this young person and the family in the Tunbridge Wells area. You will need to drive due to the semi-rural location of the family home.

You will have experience in tutoring 1:1, in particular within the SEND needs described above and having experience of supporting a young person with an EHCP, ongoing health conditions, and developing needs.

The Tuition Role:

• One-to-one tuition in the young person’s home
• Support a learner through personalised learning plans
• Deliver specific tuition and beyond where applicable
• Build trust and confidence in a safe, supportive learning environment

Ideal Candidate for this Tutor position:

• Experienced in working with SEND inc. ADHD, PDA and ASK & dis-engaged/anxious learners
• Confident delivering lessons independently and adapting to varied needs
• Patient, empathetic, caring and resilient
• Able to travel locally for face-to-face tuition in the family home

If you're passionate about education and want to help shape a better future for young people as a Tutor, we’d love to hear from you.

In return for the above you can expect to receive:

• A dedicated team of consultants to help you with the easy onboarding process
• CPD Courses and certificates as part of the My-Progression channel
• Market leading rates of pay
