- Ability to understand the needs, objectives and constraints of others.
- Experience of working with students in a higher education environment on a one-to-one basis is desired.
- Knowledge and understanding of different learning styles and approaches to working with them.

It is essential that applicants hold a minimum of a degree and ideally a teaching qualification. However, if an applicant has sufficient experience in working with individuals with specific learning difficulties, then this may be overlooked.

It is highly desirable that applicants have a formal qualification in working with Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia or other specific learning difficulties and ideally have undergone all 5 NAS Core Autism Online Training Modules.
- PATOSS (full or associate membership)
- BDA (full professional membership)
- ADSHE (professional membership)
- Dyslexia Guild (member, associate or fellow membership)

Support will be conducted at mutually agreed times between tutors and students therefore there is a great deal of flexibility to the role. However, support is likely to be requested by students in working hours (Mon-Fri 0900 - 1700). This role may require a variety of remote and face-to-face support so it is essential applicants are willing and able to provide both. This role will commence from September.
