Job description
Outreach Tutor (Afterschool and Daytime Opportunities) – Barking & Dagenham
ABOUT THE ROLE
Prospero Teaching is seeking passionate, qualified Outreach Tutors to deliver tailored 1:1 educational programmes to young people who are currently out of school or students who require additional after-school support in and around Barking and Dagenham.
This role is ideal for qualified teachers looking for additional hours after the school day, or tutors seeking flexible work that fits around their schedule. While our primary focus is on after-school sessions, we also welcome applications from tutors available during school hours.
As an Outreach Tutor, you will design and deliver bespoke lessons to help bridge educational gaps, rebuild confidence, and boost attainment. Many of the young people you’ll work with may have been out of education for some time, so your role in re-engaging and supporting them through personalised learning is crucial.
