Science Tutor – Somerset

Working arrangement: In-person
Job Type: Flexible, part-time opportunities
Quantum Scholars is looking for a supportive, patient, and experienced Science Tutor to provide one-to-one tuition for young people across Somerset, specifically Taunton and the surrounding areas.
Quantum Scholars has been approved onto Somerset Council’s Alternative Provision Framework, and we are now looking to expand our network of tutors to support young people who are currently accessing Alternative Provision.
The role will involve providing 1:1 Science tuition tailored to the individual needs, abilities, and circumstances of each young person. Students may have a range of SEND and/or SEMH needs and may be unable to access a mainstream school setting at present.
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.
