Maths and English Tutor

I hope you are well.

We are currently seeking a dedicated and compassionate tutor to support a Year 8 student (L) who requires additional help to re-engage with learning.

L has not attended school for the past three weeks and is currently finding it challenging to engage in lessons. In school, he can display disruptive behaviours as a way to avoid learning, which has led to gaps in his foundational knowledge, particularly in English and Maths.

A baseline assessment will be required to identify appropriate starting points, followed by regular tuition sessions to address these gaps.

Key Requirements for the Tutor:

Strong knowledge of Key Stage 3 English and Maths
Experience supporting Autistic learners
A trauma-informed and attachment-aware approach
Ability to build a trusting and consistent relationship (this is essential for successful engagement)
Ideally local to the student to support longer-term reintegration into educationAdditional Considerations:

L can experience social anxiety, so a calm, supportive, and patient approach is important
He may need gradual exposure to learning environments and social situations, with appropriate adult support
Time should be allowed for rapport building before academic progress can be expectedHours & Flexibility:

Approximately 3 hours per week
We offer flexibility and can work around your availability
Opportunities to take on additional students if you are looking to increase your hoursThis tuition forms part of a wider support package aimed at helping L successfully reintegrate into education and feel more confident in his learning.
