The Brilliant Club
This is an opportunity to get training and work as a tutor in The Brilliant Club, which is an award-winning university access charity. They provide PhDs and ECRs training in widening participation, research communication, and teaching. Researchers are then paid to deliver programmes to small groups of pupils in state schools across the UK, to support their access to the most competitive universities and succeed when they get there. You can view more information and apply on their website.
