Could you be an online distance learning tutor?

Having the right tutor makes a huge difference to a student’s experience. Time and again we hear from students who tell us that their tutor gave them confidence to succeed after years of thinking that they would never gain the qualifications they needed to change career, or go on to university. Whilst we currently have four vacancies (listed above), we are always happy to receive speculative CVs.

General requirements for tutoring:

We look for tutors who are passionate for their subject(s) and can demonstrate this in the feedback and support provided to students.

For A level, IGCSE or GCSE tutoring we ask that:

• you have a degree in a relevant subject and a recognised teaching qualification
• you are ideally, currently teaching and are very familiar with the current educational climate, particularly the changes to A Level teaching.

In addition we welcome those who are also examiners and have experience of working with awarding bodies, and those with knowledge of distance tutoring and the use of Moodle or similar Virtual Learning Environments.

You should be prepared to attend standardisation, or course review events, which are held annually for courses where non-exam assessment (NEA) is part of assessment. These may be at our NEC Office (Cambridge) or online.

Tutors should be happy to tutor students of all ages, including those who are under 18.
