You can be the teacher who plans around the learner, not a scheme of work - online, reaching young people who can't easily get to one otherwise. None of the teaching-at-scale trade-off, less admin, just one person and the part of teaching you care about. We're recruiting experienced teachers, £25 - £30 per hour, for one-to-one online sessions with vulnerable children and young people across the UK; many can't access in-person provision, many have been out of school.
What you get
- Work from home: Fully remote teaching. You work from home; your learners can be anywhere in the UK.
- Flexible schedule: Part-time or full-time, around your other commitments. Daytime, evenings, term-time; you decide.
- Tes CPD access: Unlimited use of the Tes professional development library, plus our own SEMH-focused CPD.
- Mentoring programme: Regular check-ins and expert guidance throughout every placement.
- Specialist team behind you: SENDCos, Designated Safeguarding Leads, senior special-school leaders, and experienced tutors backing every placement.
- Tutor community events: Online drop-ins, knowledge-sharing sessions, and a genuine community of fellow teachers even though the work is remote.
How we work
We meet each young person where they are - safeguarding wrapped around the work, engagement before attainment, child-led and matched to your approach. We match, we don't dictate. Trauma-informed teaching that's transformative, not a gap filler - trusted by Local Authorities and schools.
Day to day
- You'll teach one-to-one online in English, Maths, or Science to children and young people aged 5 to 18, referred by Local Authorities and schools.
- Sessions are typically 1 to 2 hours via secure video platform; placements often run consistently with the same learner for months.
- Most of your learners will have SEMH, ADHD, ASC, MLD, SLD, or other SEND needs; many have been out of school for some time.
- You write per-session reports as part of the professional standard, supported by templates and your SEND Support Specialist.
You'll need
- Experience: At least 2 years' teaching experience with SEMH, ADHD, ASC, MLD, SLD, or other SEND needs, and comfort teaching online.
- Qualification: QTS or QTLS, or a directly equivalent specialist teaching qualification.
- Subjects: Confidence teaching English, Maths, or Science at one or more Key Stages.
- Tech setup: Reliable broadband, a working webcam, and a quiet space to teach from.
- Compliance: Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), two professional references, and UK-based with right to work in the UK.
