Help Young People Achieve Their Educational Goals

TP Tutors is looking for committed and enthusiastic education professionals to deliver personalised tuition to children and young people across Peterborough and nearby communities.

This opportunity is ideal for experienced tutors, teachers and SEND practitioners who want flexible work while making a positive contribution to pupils' academic progress and personal development.

You will provide face-to-face tuition in pupils' homes, schools and alternative provision settings. Your work may involve helping learners improve their subject knowledge, prepare for examinations, overcome gaps in education or gradually return to structured learning.

Responsibilities

• Deliver tailored one-to-one sessions based on pupils' abilities, needs and individual targets.
• Create structured lesson plans and engaging learning activities.
• Evaluate progress and identify areas requiring further support.
• Adjust teaching approaches to suit different learning needs and abilities.
• Develop pupils' confidence, engagement, behaviour and independent learning skills.
• Build positive working relationships with parents, carers, schools and other professionals.
• Complete progress documentation and comply with safeguarding procedures.

Subjects and Tuition Areas

Applications are welcomed from tutors with experience in any of the following:

• Primary English, Mathematics, reading, writing and numeracy.
• Secondary English, Maths and Science.
• GCSE tuition and examination revision.
• Functional Skills qualifications.
• Humanities, Modern Foreign Languages and Computing.
• Creative Arts and other National Curriculum subjects.
• Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
• Home tuition, educational reintegration and alternative provision.

Essential Qualifications and Experience

• A minimum of two years' teaching or tutoring experience in the UK.
• Knowledge of Primary, Secondary, GCSE, Functional Skills or SEND education.
• Excellent communication, organisation, lesson planning and behaviour management skills.
• Reliable transport or suitable arrangements for travelling between assignments.
• An Enhanced DBS registered with the Update Service, or willingness to apply for one.

A teaching qualification such as QTS, PGCE or an equivalent recognised qualification is desirable, but not essential.

Experience That Will Be an Advantage

We particularly welcome tutors who have supported learners with autism (ASC), ADHD, SEMH, dyslexia, speech, language and communication needs (SLCN), EHCPs, emotional or behavioural difficulties, and interrupted education. Experience working in home tuition or alternative provision settings is also beneficial.

What You Can Expect

• Competitive weekly pay.
• Flexible assignments across Peterborough and surrounding areas.
• Dedicated support from a specialist education consultant.
• Weekly in-house payroll.
• Free CPD and specialist training opportunities.
• Access to a variety of tuition placements.
• Possibility of progressing into permanent employment.
• The satisfaction of helping pupils improve their learning, confidence and wellbeing.
