SEN Tutor

Experienced Special Needs Tutors

1-1 Sessions

Barking & Dagenham area

Prospero Teaching is looking for an experienced SEN Tutor in or around Barking & Dagenham areas, to provide tuition for children who may have a range of special educational needs or behavioural needs.

As an SEN Tutor, you must be able to create, plan and deliver 1:1 tailored lesson to bridge gaps in pupil’s education and boost engagement and attainment levels. This opportunity is great for an experienced teacher who is looking to step away from the classroom to offer more personalised, enjoyable lessons.

Most of these pupils will have been out of education for some time, so their confidence levels may be very low. It is your responsibility to reengage them in their learning and offer structure back into their daily routine.

We work with you closely to monitor the progression of each pupil by asking you to submit weekly reports, focusing on the highs and lows of the week and what subject areas were focused on. We also ask you to highlight engagement levels to ensure that the sessions are beneficial to the young person.

The students that require support are often SEN pupils with EHCP’s, tuition often takes place at home and will be in within the following areas all around the Bareas. A strong background in supporting SEN pupils with autism, SEMH, and complex needs would be essential for this role.

• Position – 1:1 Tutor
• Type of work – Contract
• Start date – ASAP
• Duration – Until the pupil can reintegrate into a new school placement
• End date – On-going

• QTS or equivalent
• Possess UK classroom teaching experience
• Be creative, patient and willing to think outside of the box
• Have experience working with SEND or disengaged pupils
• Experience working as a tutor
