Description
Help a Young Person Reconnect with Learning
We're looking for an experienced, patient and resilient educator to provide 1:1 support for a learner who has become disengaged from education. Success in this role isn't about delivering a perfect lesson plan - it's about building a consistent, positive relationship that creates the foundations for learning.
Please note: It is an occupational and safeguarding requirement for this position to be filled by a male tutor. Other candidates may apply as other students may be suitable matches.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
