Job description

WANTED: Maths Tutor

Are you the kind of person who has a passion for maths and teaching it? Do you believe that every child deserves a second (and third... and fourth) chance to shine, no matter their background?

Then, we need you!

We’re on the lookout for a brilliantly compassionate and wonderfully patientmaths tutor to work one-on-one with Looked After Children and those who are in Alternative Provisions. These young people might not fit the traditional classroom mold, but they’re bursting with potential — and you could be the one to help unlock it.

What you’ll be doing:

• Turning “I hate maths” into “I CAN do this!”

• Bringing algebra, geometry, and times tables to life in creative, hands-on ways.

• Working flexibly, sometimes in homes, sometimes in schools, always making a difference.

• Acting as a mentor as much as a teacher – a steady presence in a young person’s chaotic world.

Requirements:

• A maths expert with a teaching qualification or a maths degree and the equivalent experience.

• Experience with young people who’ve faced challenges? Amazing.

• Patient, kind, and a positive influence

• Able to work flexibly and independently.

• Enhanced Child Workforce DBS (or willing to apply for one).

Perks of the job:

• Hugely rewarding work that actually matters.

• Flexible hours to fit your life.

• Competitive pay.

This is life-changing work with young people who need a champion.

Apply now and help make maths make sense (and maybe even fun!) for the ones who need it most.
