An experienced teacher is sought for a role working as a full time Tutor with an aspiring sportsman aged 14. The Tutor will be responsible for the boy’s education for at least the 2017-18 academic year, following the US high school system on the NUVHS platform. The position ideally starts in early August 2017 or as soon as possible thereafter. The successful candidate for this role will certainly have knowledge of US system, and ideally also of the British system, and will be able to teach a large range of subjects up to and well beyond 10th grade.
This is a long-term role that will finish at the end of July 2018. It is possible that it will be extended. For this first year of the role, at least, the boy's school has agreed a leave of absence for 9th grade and will keep his place there subject to him earning at least 6 grade 9 credits.
Although largely based in Lincolnshire, there will be periods of travel involved as the boy moves between training locations, competitions and his familial home in Singapore.
It is essential that the Tutor is a non-smoker and leads a healthy lifestyle. They must ensure that they hold adequate medical and travel insurance to cover themselves both in the United Kingdom and abroad.
The ideal Tutor will lead a healthy and physically active lifestyle that includes competitive sport, but it is preferable that he or she knows little or nothing about motorsport.
