Why Become a Tutor with TPTUTORS?

Tutoring with TPTUTORS isn't just a side job-it's an opportunity to change the course of a learner's life. You'll help students build confidence, close academic gaps, and reach meaningful educational milestones. Whether you have expertise in Special Educational Needs (SEN) or are a subject specialist in areas like Business Studies, Modern Languages, or English and Maths, your skills are needed.

Your Role as a TPTUTOR and What You'll Be Doing

As a tutor with us, you'll typically work 10-15 hours per week, though some roles may begin with as little as 1 hour per week, depending on student needs. We offer flexible scheduling to fit your availability, and tutoring can take place either:

• In person- at a student's home or in a public setting such as a local library or community centre.
• Online- through secure digital platforms, when that better suits the student or location.

You will work one-on-one with students to deliver focused, goal-driven support that helps them overcome challenges and achieve progress in their learning.

• Design and deliver personalised lesson plans tailored to each learner's specific academic goals and learning needs.
• Provide engaging, age-appropriate instruction-especially in core subject areas such as English, Maths, and Science.
• Complete and submit detailed session notes via our secure online system, enabling accurate progress tracking, quality monitoring, and payroll processing.
• Adjust teaching approaches based on student feedback and progress, ensuring lessons are as effective and supportive as possible.
• Maintain open, clear communication with families, schools, and our TPTUTORS consultants to ensure alignment and early issue resolution.

What We're Looking For

We welcome a diverse range of educators, but are especially interested in candidates who bring the following:

• A degree in Education, SEN, or a related subject area.
• At least 2 years' experience in teaching or tutoring-ideally within the UK education system.
• A strong understanding of differentiated instruction and the ability to adapt lessons to suit varied learning styles.
• SEN experience is highly valued, but not required.
• Excellent interpersonal, organisational, and communication skills.
• A commitment to safeguarding and student well-being.

Working with Us - What You Can Expect

Flexible part-time roles- begin with 1 hour/week and increase your hours over time based on demand and availability.

• Opportunities may be short- or long-term, with many placements extending over multiple academic years, especially when tied to EHCPs or school transitions.
• You'll have autonomy over your schedule, coordinating directly with families while also receiving support from our consultant team.

• Attend an initial Microsoft Teams meeting for introductions and onboarding.
• Hold (or be willing to obtain) an Enhanced DBS on the Update Service- link provided; applicant covers cost.
