Academic Support Tutor

Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of young people? Teaching Personnel, the UK’s leading provider of tutors and tuition programmes, is seeking individuals like you to join our team and provide 1:1 support to students in need.

Research has shown that just 12 hours of tutoring can lead to the equivalent of 3 months of additional progress for a student. As such, there is a growing demand for tutors to work with pupils from diverse backgrounds and abilities.

We are currently seeking tutors in the Leicester area, where there is a significant need for support. Our students range from Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) through GCSE and A-levels in core subjects such as English, Maths, and Science. Additionally, we have students who require assistance with life skills and transitioning back into a routine.

Tuition may be required for various reasons, including:

• Looked after children.
• Relocation
• Special Educational Needs (SEN) / Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs
