Outreach Tutor – Essex

Prospero Teaching is looking for an Outreach Tutor in or around Essex to provide tuition for children who may have a range of Special Educational needs or behavioural needs. As an SEN Tutor, you must be able to create, plan and deliver 1:1 tailored lessons to bridge gaps in pupil's education and boost engagement and attainment levels. This opportunity is great for an experienced teacher looking to step away from the classroom to offer more personalised, enjoyable lessons.

Most of these pupils will have been out of education for some time, so their confidence levels may be very low. It is your responsibility to re‑engage them in their learning and offer structure back into their daily routine.

Prospero Teaching will work with you closely to monitor the progression with each pupil and support effective learning.
