About the Role:
Connex Education is looking for a passionate and experienced Home Tutor to support children and young adults aged 5 to 25 across Birmingham B12 and nearby areas. This role involves delivering high-quality 1:1 tuition to learners who are not currently in mainstream education, often due to a variety of SEND, SEMH, or trauma-related needs.
