About the Role: We are seeking an experienced Special Education Teacher Support Services (SETSS) tutor to work one-on-one with a 9th-grade student who benefits from structured, routine-based learning. The student experiences frustration with certain academic tasks and requires a patient, skilled provider to build foundational literacy, functional math, and language/communication skills.

The ideal candidate excels at using structured behavioral and learning strategies—such as token boards, reward systems, scheduled breaks, and sensory tools—to keep the student engaged, reduce frustration, and foster a positive learning environment.

  • Implement structured behavioral supports, including token boards, reward systems, scheduled breaks, and sensory activities/tools to support focus and reduce frustration
  • Maintain a highly structured, routine-based environment to encourage active participation and task completion
  • Support the development of language and functional communication skills
  • Monitor progress and adapt instructional strategies to meet the student's evolving academic and behavioral needs

Qualifications:

  • Demonstrated experience providing Special Education Teacher Support Services (SETSS) or specialized 1:1 Special Education support
  • Strong background teaching foundational literacy (phonics, CVC words, blending) and functional math (money skills, basic computation)
  • Skilled in implementing positive behavioral support tools (token economies, reward systems, visual schedules) and sensory breaks
  • Experience working with high school-aged students requiring foundational/functional academic support
  • Patient, structured, encouraging, and adept at managing frustration around challenging academic tasks
  • Open to an evening and weekend tutoring schedule

Additional Information:

  • Format: In-person tutoring

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
