Need some work for Summer!

[clarabelle]

I am having a bit of a panic attack now that the Summer Term is about to start that I will have to sign on over the summer hols to get some money. I really don't want to have to do this and I would like to become a private tutor in my local area. How do I go about this?

Don't know about private tuition but what about trying to teach at a language school, the pay isn't bad and often you get to accompany the students to places of interest too!

what words they're trying to learn whilst capsizing!

Do you want to declare the work you do? (Obviously, Footie's watching!) Becoming self-employed is a doddle, and so are the forms at the end of the year etc. Then, depending on what legal implications there are, you could offer 'Science Days' to max. 4 kids, something like that?

Private (hidden from the Inland Revenue) tutors are treading on thin ice in case a kids hurts themselves whilst under your supervision/makes allegations etc.

I'd get in touch with your union in the first instance, and see what they say... you might be able to get seasonal work as a tutor with a local Kip McGrath establishment etc. either... then you're covered by their professional indemnity insurance.

I would probably go through an agency or I would definitely declare the money I've earned.

If you're self-employed then, I'd just make sure you looked into the legal side of it... you may be governed by child-minders laws and need prof. indemnity insurance and the like... definitely worth talking to your union then... let us know!

Hi all,

Can any of you recommend a tutor in the Worcester area who would be able to help train me to get acquainted with Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2005 (C++ version)?

I'm an IT teacher myself but programming's not my strongest point. I'm working on a private project, trying to create a plugin for Adobe After Effects and need to be able to get my head around After Effects' API.

Any takers, please contact me at:
