Job description
We’re looking for an understanding and engaging tutor to support a Year 4 student who is currently struggling to stay focused in school. The student has a history of EBSA (Emotionally Based School Avoidance) and finds classroom environments challenging, which can sometimes lead to disruptive behaviour. This is no fault of their own – they simply need someone patient who can help them re-engage with learning at their own pace.
Your role will be to:
1. Gently refocus the student and make learning enjoyable.
2. Spark an interest in education through creative, tailored sessions.
3. Build confidence in core subjects while providing a calm, supportive environment.
Ideal qualities:
4. Experience tutoring the primary curriculum, especially Maths and English
5. Ability to adapt lessons to the student’s interests to keep them engaged.
6. Empathetic, patient, and skilled at working with children who have additional needs.
Details:
7. Focus: Year 4 Maths & English
8. Location: Lymington
9. Hours: Flexible 3 – 4 hours, 2 days a week
10. Pay: £25-£30 per hour (depending on experience)
If you’re passionate about helping young learners rediscover their love for education, we’d love to hear from you!
