About the Role

Remedy Tutors is looking for caring, friendly and enthusiastic tutors to support children and young people across Sutton who may be struggling to access education in a traditional school setting.

You will provide personalised one-to-one tuition, often in the student's home or another suitable community setting.

This is a great opportunity for tutors who enjoy working closely with individual learners and want to make a genuine difference to their confidence, wellbeing and educational progress.

Students may range from primary age through to GCSE, offering opportunities to work with learners at different stages depending on your experience and preferences.

Maths and English are essential subjects for this role. If you can teach additional subjects, we'd also be happy to hear from you.

You don't need to be a qualified teacher to apply if you have strong tutoring or educational experience and are confident supporting young people with additional needs.

About the Students

Our students have a wide range of needs and abilities. You may support learners with:

• Autism (ASC/ASD)

• ADHD

• Dyslexia

• Dyscalculia

• Speech and language difficulties

• SEMH needs

• School anxiety

• Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA)

• Gaps in learning

• Previous difficulties accessing mainstream education

• Additional learning or communication needs

Every student is different, and we match tutors based on their experience, subject knowledge and ability to build a positive relationship with the learner.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Providing one-to-one Maths and English tuition.

• Supporting learners from primary age through to GCSE.

• Teaching additional subjects where you have suitable experience.

• Helping students rebuild confidence and engagement with education.

• Identifying gaps in learning and working at the student's individual level.

• Planning engaging and purposeful sessions.

• Adapting your teaching to suit individual SEN needs.

• Supporting students with their EHCP targets and learning goals where appropriate.

• Helping students prepare for exams where required.

• Building a positive and trusting relationship with each learner.

• Keeping simple records of sessions and progress.

• Communicating with parents, carers and other professionals when required.

Who We’re Looking For

• Confident teaching Maths and English.

• Experienced working with children or young people.

• Experienced supporting students with SEN/SEND.

• Patient, friendly and approachable.

• Good at building positive relationships.

• Able to adapt their teaching to different needs and abilities.

• Comfortable working independently.

• Reliable and organised.

• Passionate about helping young people succeed.

• Able to create a calm, supportive and positive learning environment.

You may be an experienced teacher, tutor, teaching assistant, SEN specialist or have another relevant educational background.

An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service is preferred, but we can discuss this with you if you don't currently have one.

Essential Subject Expertise

• Maths

• English

Additional Subjects

If you can teach other subjects, such as Science, Humanities, Modern Foreign Languages, Computing or Primary subjects, please let us know.

Additional subject expertise may allow you to support a wider range of referrals.

Experience That Would Be Helpful

• QTS, PGCE or another teaching qualification.

• SEN/SEND training or experience.

• Experience working with EHCPs.

• Experience teaching primary, secondary or GCSE students.

• Experience in schools, alternative provision or specialist settings.

• Previous home tuition or outreach experience.

• Experience supporting students with anxiety, EBSA or school absence.

Why Join Remedy Tutors?

We understand that every tutor has different availability, which is why we offer flexible opportunities.

You can choose referrals that suit your experience, location and availability, and build up your hours over time.

Most referrals are around 10-15 hours per week per student, with the potential for ongoing work.

You'll have the opportunity to work closely with individual learners and provide the consistency, encouragement and support that can make a real difference.

If you're a friendly and enthusiastic tutor who enjoys helping young people gain confidence and make progress, we'd love to hear from you.
