TUTORING AT BHCA
BHCA offers adult education and leisure activities to students aged 18+. Tutors deliver learning to adults in their topic of expertise. BHCA tends to have mature students. In 2022 60% were aged 65+ and 98% were aged 40+. Students enjoy the interaction and social aspects as much as the purpose and learning of the courses they attend. Many have attended BHCA courses for many years.
Our tutors are inspirational, enthusiastic, flexible and enjoy working with adults and seniors. They must have the ability to work on their own whilst adhering to organisational policies and appreciate working in a supportive, friendly, and creative environment that encourages social interaction.
