We are now looking to recruit Online Tutors to join our BA Photography (Online) team in the Institute of Photography, covering the Futures and Launch modules.
The module Futures is a first third year professional practice module which helps students navigate their professional motivations, aspirations and ethical responsibilities. The module Launch is a final major project module, where students work towards their final portfolio or extended practice.
Online Tutors are vital to the success and vibrancy of our online courses. They are a constant presence in the module, the first point of contact for students’ academic enquiries and supporting their learning activities. As the Online Tutor you will deliver live sessions such as webinars, workshops or tutorials each week to a cohort of students. Around these live sessions you will be responsible for topic discussions, and academic guidance via emails, one to ones and an online learning space. You will work closely with the course leader and module leaders to ensure best possible student experience.
The hours for this role are flexible and spread throughout the week as agreed by your line manager. The flexibility of this role means that you can fit the hours around existing responsibilities. The role compliments individuals who have freelance careers or other teaching commitments. Each online tutor is responsible for no more than 30 students, making this an extremely rewarding role.
The Online Tutor for the module Futures will be allocated 112 hours during Study Block 2, to support up to 30 students with learning, assessment and feedback, working January 2025 to May 2025.
The Online Tutor for the module Launch, will be allocated 208 hours during Study Block 3, to support up to 30 students with learning, assessment and feedback, working May 2025 to September 2025.
