SEND Specialist Tutor Opportunity - 1:1, WR6/WR2 Area (Herefordshire/Worcestershire border)
Prospero Teaching is looking for a SEND Specialist Tutor to deliver a bespoke face-to-face tuition package on a 1:1 basis to a highly able Year 9 pupil with ASD and DCD who is currently accessing education through an EOTAS package.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting and rewarding opportunity for a skilled and empathetic tutor who can combine subject knowledge across core GCSE subjects (including English, Maths, Sciences, and Humanities) with a nurturing and personalised approach to learning.
The pupil is intellectually curious, with a particular interest in subjects like quantum mechanics, but he requires structured, foundational teaching to close learning gaps and build GCSE-level competence. Your role will involve delivering engaging, motivating lessons that meet him at his level-both academically and emotionally.
You will play a vital part in re-engaging this learner with the curriculum, helping him to build confidence and prepare for qualifications, with support from Prosperos consultant team and regular communication with his wider care team.
