Remedy Tutoring is looking for an experienced, patient and dedicated Autism Specialist Tutor to support children and young people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) across South London and the surrounding areas.

We are seeking a tutor who has a strong understanding of autism and experience adapting their teaching approach to meet the individual needs of autistic students. The ideal candidate will be confident providing structured, personalised tuition to students who may experience communication differences, sensory sensitivities, anxiety around transitions or difficulties engaging with traditional educational environments.

We support students with a range of needs and abilities, including those who are working below their expected academic level, have gaps in their education or are currently unable to attend school. We are therefore looking for someone who can create a calm, predictable and supportive learning environment while building positive relationships and helping students progress at their own pace.

The Role

• Deliver personalised one-to-one tuition tailored to each student's individual learning needs, interests, abilities and educational targets.
• Support students across core subjects, including English, Maths and Science, depending on your qualifications and subject specialisms.
• Use visual timetables, visual prompts, structured routines and clear instructions to support understanding and engagement.
• Adapt teaching methods to accommodate communication differences, sensory needs and individual learning preferences.
• Support students who may be non-speaking or have limited verbal communication, using appropriate strategies such as visual aids, communication books, signs or other established communication systems where required.
• Break learning into manageable steps and provide repetition, consistency and additional processing time where appropriate.
• Support students who may experience anxiety around transitions, changes in routine or unfamiliar environments.
• Develop positive, trusting relationships with students, recognising the importance of patience, predictability and an individualised approach.
• Identify gaps in learning and deliver lessons at the student's current working level, rather than solely their chronological age or school year.
• Encourage engagement, independence, confidence and the development of functional learning skills. xgikmsk
