Nzma - Youth Tutor

New Zealand Management Academies (NZMA) is one of NZ’s largest Private Training Establishments offering vocational courses and qualifications across a range of programmes. With authentic training environments, well-designed programmes, and a fun and supportive learning environment, we have a mission to provide all our students with positive educational experiences to help them move ahead. NZMA is a springboard for building many bright and successful futures.

**About the role**:
As a Youth Tutor you will ensure that each NZMA Youth Guarantee student is provided with an optimal total learning experience - where they are welcomed into the Campus and treated with cultural understanding and respect. You will also provide quality teaching and learning support, guidance and help and assist the students in their transition to higher education and ultimately employment.

The Youth Tutor will provide support to the students within and outside of the classroom to help our youth succeed and transition into adult learning. The Youth tutor will successfully embed Literacy, Language and Numeracy (LLN) principles into the learning context and build the student's functional skills to support retention and successful outcomes.

External support will include building and utilising strong community contacts and developing a strong understanding of support systems available for our youth students to succeed.

**About you**:
We are looking for someone who has previous experience working with youth in alternative education or youth development sectors and who are aware of the unique challenges youth bring. You will have strong classroom management skills as well as an ability to excite and install passion through your teaching.

Experience teaching youth or adult learners in a tertiary/relevant education environment is also preferred but not essential.

**Why work with us?**

We are fast movers, action orientated, keen innovators, and quick thinkers who enjoy a workplace that is inspiring and fun and focused on making a difference. We offer ongoing career development.
