About the Role

 

Home-Based SEN Tutor – near Duxford, Cambridgeshire

Start: ASAP
Hours: 1–2 hours per day, with flexibility across weekdays
Location: Learner’s home near Duxford, Cambridgeshire
Focus: Key Stage 2 English and Maths, with interest-led learning

About the Role

Inspire Tutoring is seeking a calm, patient and creative tutor to provide individual tuition for an 11-year-old learner who is currently unable to access school because of emotionally based school avoidance and mental-health needs. Tuition will initially take place in the learner’s home near Duxford, Cambridgeshire, where they are most likely to feel safe and able to engage. The immediate priority is to rebuild trust, confidence and a positive connection with education through short, carefully paced sessions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver engaging, individualised tuition in the learner’s home.
  • Plan accessible Key Stage 2 English and Maths activities at an appropriate working level.
  • Use the learner’s interests—including Minecraft, science, music, digital art and cooking—to encourage participation.
  • Adopt a low-demand, relationship-led approach and avoid an overly authoritative style.
  • Use screen-based resources appropriately to support engagement.
  • Monitor progress, provide concise session feedback and work collaboratively with the family, school and wider professional team.
  • Support a gradual increase in educational engagement and readiness for future reintegration.

About You

  • Qualified teacher, experienced tutor or education professional with strong Key Stage 2 knowledge.
  • Experience supporting learners with SEND, anxiety, emotionally based school avoidance, or barriers to school attendance.
  • Understanding of autism- and ADHD-informed practice, including demand-sensitive approaches.
  • Calm, reliable and able to build trust without placing unnecessary pressure on the learner.
  • Creative and confident in adapting learning around individual interests and needs.
  • Strong communication, safeguarding and record-keeping skills.
  • Suitable to work in a home-tuition setting and able to travel near Duxford, Cambridgeshire.

Apply

If you are an empathetic and adaptable tutor who can make learning feel safe, achievable and relevant, we would like to hear from you. Please apply with an up-to-date CV and a short summary of your relevant experience and availability.

Inspire Tutoring is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. All appointments are subject to appropriate safer-recruitment checks, including an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references.
