Tutoring opportunities for PhD researchers and postdocs

01 Jun 2021

The Brilliant Club’s Researcher Development Programme offers PhD and Early Career Researchers a meaningful, paid, professional development opportunity

Its mission is to support pupils from underrepresented backgrounds to have fair access to University. It does this by training PhD researchers as tutors to deliver two programmes in non-selective state schools.

The Scholars Programme allows researchers to share their subject expertise, delivering an academically challenging supra-curricular course; The Brilliant Tutoring Programme allows researchers to use their subject knowledge to support pupils to develop in key curriculum areas.
