SEMH Tutor

Prospero Teaching are looking for an experienced, passionate and patient Maths and English Tutor. Within this role, you must be able to create, plan and deliver 1:1 tailored lessons as a means of alternate education. One of your aims will be to support and re-engage a pupil in their learning, offer structure back into their daily routine, continue their educational development and aid their return to school.

Information about the role:

Ongoing placement, or until the young person returns to school
Hours dependent on the young persons needs
GBP25 - GBP30 per hour, depending on experience and qualifications

The desired candidate will have:

Experience tutoring Maths and English on a 1:1 or small group basis
QTS is desireable but not essential
Be creative, patient and willing to think outside of the box
Have experience working with challenging behaviour and disengaged pupils

What we need from you:

Hold a right to work in the UK
Hold an enhanced child barred list DBS certificate registered with the online update service or be willing to complete a new application
Provide references to cover the last two years of employment
The ability to commit to the young person and work for the duration of the placement
