Functional Skills Tutor

Prospero Teaching is looking for a Functional skills Tutor in or around Gillingham to deliver tuition to students who are currently out of education.

As a Tutor, you must be able to create, plan and deliver 1:1 tailored lessons based around Functional Skills to bridge gaps in pupil's education and boost engagement and attainment levels. This opportunity is great for an experienced teacher who is looking to step away from the classroom to offer more personalised, enjoyable lessons.

Most of these pupils will have been out of education for some time, so their confidence levels may be very low. It is your responsibility to reengage them in their learning and offer structure back into their daily routine, until they are fully reintegrated back into school.

Prospero Teaching will work with you closely to monitor the progression with each pupil and support effective learning.
