WHAT DO YOU NEED TO BE A SUCCESSFUL FOUNDATION TUTOR AT ACTIVATE LEARNING?

We are looking for people who can act as role models for our students and ensure that they leave us with not just their professional qualifications, but the attributes required to progress in the world of work. A genuine interest in working with and developing young people is a requirement.
Successful candidates will have experience in careers guidance, wellness, teaching GCSE English, and the ability to nurture and support young adults with a variety of needs.
Whilst previous teaching experience or qualification would be an advantage, it is not a requirement. As long as you have the industry experience and demonstrate the attributes to be an inspirational teacher, we can provide you with the necessary training, development and support to equip you to teach in the FE sector.
