We are working alongside Leicester City Council to find experienced and engaging individuals to register with us for in-person tutoring positions.
We are looking for qualified teachers, experienced tutors, or individuals who may not be formally qualified but have extensive experience working with children with SEND and possess a real passion for making a positive difference in their lives.
When working with children with special educational needs, you need to be patient, understanding, and extremely caring, as each student’s story is different.
Upon assignment to a student, you will receive their EHCP (Education Health Care Plan), which will outline their requirements and needs. This will guide you in planning how to deliver the tuition. You will also be required to mark the student's work and be comfortable producing an accurate report on the child’s progress.
This role offers negotiable working hours based on your availability and that of the student.

To be a successful SEND Tutor, you will need:
* Sensitivity and understanding
* Patience and the ability to remain calm in stressful situations
* Active listening skills
* Ability to care for children's physical, social, and emotional welfare
* Flexibility and openness to change
* Excellent verbal communication skills
* Ability to adapt teaching support according to students' needs
Other essential requirements include:

In return for the above, you can expect to receive:
