Job Description
Functional Skills Lecturer
Temporary | Contract
Location: the West Midlands
Are you an English or maths specialist who enjoys helping learners gain the qualifications that open doors for them?
About the Role
Our client, a further education provider in the West Midlands, is looking for a Functional Skills Lecturer to deliver English and maths to learners studying across a range of vocational programmes.
You'll plan and deliver engaging sessions that meet learners at their starting points, assess their work and track their progress towards achieving their qualifications. Many of the learners you'll work with will have found English and maths difficult in the past, so your focus will be on building confidence as well as skills.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Delivering Functional Skills English and maths sessions to learners at a range of levels.
- Planning and preparing lessons that meet learners' needs and course requirements.
- Assessing learners' work, giving clear feedback and monitoring progress towards qualifications.
- Keeping accurate records of attendance, progress and achievement.
- Working with curriculum and support colleagues to make sure individual learner needs are met.
What We're Looking For
Essential:
- A Level 3 qualification in English or maths, or equivalent
- Experience of teaching or supporting learners in English and/or maths
- Strong classroom management and the ability to engage learners who may have disengaged from education
- Excellent communication skills and a calm, consistent approach
Desirable (but not essential):
- A recognised teaching qualification such as PGCE, Cert Ed or DET, or a willingness to work towards one
- Experience of delivering Functional Skills within a further education or training setting
If you're ready to help learners achieve the English and maths qualifications they need to progress, we'd love to hear from you.
