Maths Tutor: ‘Multiply’

£26,598-£30,333 Pro rata

Part-time flexible hours to March 2025 including pay for non-contact time.

We are recruiting part-time Maths tutors to deliver Maths programmes as part of our Multiply project.  Multiply is an exciting new Department for Education Maths initiative, funded until 31^st March 2025.  This is a challenging role as tutors will be expected to help identify opportunities to work with potential learners within their local area and to develop appropriate course material.  

This Project aims to help people improve their ability to understand and use Maths in daily life, home, and work: improving household finances, helping children with homework, making more sense of the facts in the media, or improving numeracy skills specific to a line of work. To achieve this, the Multiply Project offers a range of options such as free personal tutoring, digital training and flexible courses that fit around people’s lives and are tailored to specific needs, circumstances, sectors and industries.

In year one, the focus is on delivery of Maths engagement activities through to non-accredited courses such as using Maths in personal finance. In years two and three, accredited courses become part of the Multiply programme. 

We would also welcome Maths tutors with experience of working with ESOL learners.   

The successful applicants will be able to choose which courses they would wish to deliver and will also have the opportunity of developing their own course material where appropriate.  We will also be able to offer a teaching qualification for those who are currently unqualified.  Full details of the role are contained in the job description.
