Prospero Teaching is expanding its team of tutors across Plymouth, and we're looking for enthusiastic, patient and dedicated individuals to provide one-to-one educational support to children and young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN). This is a fantastic opportunity to work closely with students who may have struggled to access mainstream education, helping them rebuild their confidence, rediscover their love of learning and work towards reintegrating into an educational environment.
With competitive hourly pay, flexible working arrangements and opportunities to build a schedule around your availability, this could be an ideal role for experienced teachers, teaching assistants, tutors or individuals with relevant transferable experience.
The Role
- Delivering personalised, one-to-one tuition to students who require additional educational support outside of a traditional classroom environment.
- Delivering engaging, tailored lessons in subjects such as English and Maths.
- Supporting students with additional needs, including Autism, ADHD, SEMH and emotional regulation difficulties.
- Building positive, trusting relationships and creating a supportive learning environment.
- Helping students develop confidence, independence and positive learning habits.
- Adapting your teaching approach to suit individual abilities and learning styles.
- Supporting students in working towards their educational goals and, where appropriate, reintegration into school.
What We're Looking For
- Experience working with children or young people, particularly those with SEN.
- Strong subject knowledge in English, Maths or other curriculum areas.
- Relevant teaching, tutoring or education-based qualifications, or suitable experience for the assignment.
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
- A patient, empathetic and adaptable approach.
- The confidence to work independently and deliver engaging one-to-one sessions.
- Experience in teaching, youth work, pastoral support, SEN provisions or care-based roles could all be valuable.
If you're passionate about education and want to help young people overcome barriers to learning, we'd love to hear from you. Get in touch with Prospero Teaching today to find out more about our tutoring opportunities!
