Job Description

Maths Lecturer

Temporary

Location: the East of England

Are you a maths teacher who enjoys helping learners rebuild their confidence with the subject?

About the role

A further education provider in the East of England is looking for a Maths Lecturer to deliver GCSE and Functional Skills maths to learners studying across a range of programmes. You'll teach groups of mixed ability, many of whom are resitting, and help them develop the numeracy skills they need for work, further study and everyday life.

You'll work alongside the wider maths team, sharing resources and approaches and supporting learners both academically and pastorally as they work towards their qualifications.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging, accessible maths lessons to learners of mixed ability.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessments.
  • Marking learners' work and providing timely, constructive feedback.
  • Tracking progress and supporting learners with gaps in their knowledge.
  • Building confidence and motivation in learners who have previously struggled with maths.
  • Maintaining high standards of classroom management and a positive learning environment.

What we're looking for

Essential:

  • Experience teaching GCSE or Functional Skills maths in further education or secondary
  • Strong subject knowledge and understanding of the GCSE specification
  • Ability to adapt and differentiate teaching to varied learning needs
  • Strong communication and organisational skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, CertEd or Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training
  • Experience of teaching resit groups

If you're ready to help learners achieve the maths qualification that opens the next door for them, we'd love to hear from you.
