Does this resonate?
It’s Sunday afternoon and the “Sunday dread” has already kicked in.
Your teacher bag is still sitting there waiting for you. Planning isn’t finished. There are books to mark, emails you still haven’t replied to and a to-do list in your head that won’t switch off.
You’re exhausted, but your brain is still in school mode.
You keep thinking:
“I don’t know how much longer I can do this…”
…but at the same time, the idea of leaving a permanent teaching job feels huge and frightening.
You want a way of using the skills you already have to create more flexibility, more balance and a working life that actually feels sustainable - without blowing up your whole life to get there.
Welcome to Jigsaw Phonics for mid-career primary English teachers!
We help mid-career primary teachers build small-group online phonics and early literacy tutoring businesses from home using a ready-to-teach curriculum - whether you’re starting alongside teaching, transitioning out of the classroom or ready to turn tutoring into a more professional, sustainable business.
If this sounds like the kind of working life you want to build, sign up for our next free training.
It’ll give you a real feel for how we work inside Jigsaw Phonics, the way we approach tutoring businesses differently, and what it can look like to build a more flexible, sustainable business using the teaching skills you already have.
How do you explain your tutoring so parents actually choose you?
Many tutors are brilliant at helping children, but struggle to describe their tutoring clearly online. Websites, social media and tutoring profiles often end up vague, overcomplicated or sounding just like everybody else.
In this free training, I’ll show you how to talk about your tutoring in a way that helps parents quickly understand the value of what you do - and why you’re the right tutor for their child.
