  • Support your tutee to build their confidence, communication and leadership skills.
  • Provide 1:1 teaching support for students who are falling behind in school. 
  • Have the opportunity to apply your subject knowledge and relational skills in a practical setting.

 

What You'll Learn: 
  • Gain confidence and communication while tutoring a Year 11 student.
  • Build leadership and team-building skills while collaborating with a team of tutors
  • Planning and organisation
  • Develop key soft skills (emotional intelligence, communication and problem-solving)
  • Attend a graduation ceremony at a corporate partner HQ where you will be awarded a certificate

 

What We're Looking For: 
  • Dedicated tutors who share our commitment to educational equality
  • Tutors who can provide mentorship/guidance to students
  • Attend after-school tuition workshops (1 hour a week)
  • Tutod who can lead 1:1 and small-scale tuition workshops for students.
