Get Set for Impact: Join a Team That Delivers Futures

Can I borrow 30 seconds?
When we speak to people thinking about roles like this, they often tell us they’re:

  • Frustrated that literacy teaching feels dry, not empowering.
  • Disappointed when learners leave without the confidence to use their skills.
  • Unsure how to make English lessons directly change futures.

I get the impression none of these apply to you?
They do? Thought so. Well, I’ve had my 30 seconds. Give me a minute more and read on…


The role
This is a teaching role – but with purpose. As a Freelance Essential Skills Literacy Tutor, you’ll help young people achieve English qualifications that unlock opportunities. From communication to confidence, your lessons will give learners the skills they need to thrive.

You’ll:

  • Plan and deliver engaging Literacy lessons aligned to the Essential Skills curriculum.
  • Deliver accredited qualifications and support learners through assessment.
  • Build learner confidence in communication, reading and writing.
  • Keep accurate records, safeguarding and compliance standards.
  • Support progression into work, training or education.

The person
Let me ask you:

  • Do you have GCSE (A-C) or equivalent in English (or Level 2 Essential Skills Communication)?
  • Do you have a recognised teaching qualification in line with ES Circular 01/12?
  • Have you delivered Essential Skills Literacy / Communication before?
  • Are you passionate about building confidence in everyday English?

If you’re saying yes, this is built for you.


What’s in it for you?

  • Salary: From £19ph.
  • Location: Belfast.
  • Contract: Freelance.
  • Structured development through “Your Career, Your Journey.”
  • A role where teaching English changes lives.
