Job description

Teach English, maths and science one-to-one to primary-age children in their homes in Dubai.

This role is different from secondary exam tutoring. Children at this age need patience, routine and lessons that hold their attention, and parents usually want regular, plain feedback on how their child is getting on. Phonics, reading fluency and times tables are common starting points. Arabic is arranged separately and is not part of this role.

• British curriculum, Key Stages 1 and 2 (Years 1–6): phonics and reading, grammar, punctuation and spelling, times tables and problem solving, and working scientifically.
• IB Primary Years Programme: inquiry-led learning, conceptual understanding alongside fluency, and support with the PYP Exhibition.
• Help before school assessments such as CAT4 and GL, where families ask for it.
• One-to-one lessons in person, at the student's home, in Dubai. There is no group or classroom teaching.
• We provide transport to lessons.
• You plan each student's lessons, assess their progress and give feedback to the student and their family.
• Interviews and onboarding are at our office: Emirates Towers, Office Tower, Level 41, Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai.
• Hours: Monday to Thursday 4pm to 8:30pm, Friday 2pm to 7pm, Saturday 10am to 6pm.
• Teaching or tutoring experience in the British or IB curriculum. This is required for this role.
• At least 1 academic year of teaching or tutoring experience in the UAE.
• A bachelor's degree (any subject).
• Experience of teaching early reading and number, and of talking to parents about progress.
• Fluent English, spoken and written.
• A UAE residence visa of your own. We do not sponsor visas for this role.
• A MoHRE private tutoring permit. You do not need it to apply: it can be obtained after shortlisting.
• You live in Dubai or Sharjah. All lessons are in Dubai.
