The Bejewelled Academy Volunteer Scheme
At the Bejewelled Academy we have been able to provide many people with the opportunity to gain valuable work experience within education – within primary and secondary school settings. Many of our tutors have gone on to start careers as teaching assistants and helpers within schools settings after or whilst working with us.
If you enjoy working with children in a teaching capacity, that volunteering with us at the Bejewelled Academy for a short period might be for you!
We run a number of after school clubs at various schools around London each week, so you would be working on afternoons, between 1 and 5 hours per week, according to your availability. Ideally you would work with us for a minimum of 6 weeks – making a minimum of 6 hours of tutoring, depending on how many clubs you wish to run per week.
We provide lesson plans, tips, advice and basic training on tutoring and there is also the opportunity to shadow experienced tutors before starting to tutor yourself.
In addition, to making sure you are fully prepped, we will also:
- Reimburse travel expenses
- Carry out an enhanced DBS check
- Provide class materials
- Provide references to potential future employers, after a certain period of you working with us
If you are interested in knowing more about our volunteer scheme and hoping to get started straight away, please get in touch with us at: bejewelledac@gmail.com
We look forward to hearing from you!
