Join Dyslexia PLUS Whangārei – Specialist Learning Support Teachers Wanted

Dyslexia PLUS Whangārei, affiliated with the Learning Disabilities Association of New Zealand (LDANZ), supports and advocates for children and families experiencing unexpected difficulties with reading, spelling and/or maths.

We are looking for teachers and experienced Teacher Aides who are passionate about supporting learners with specific learning difficulties and are interested in developing their skills in specialist learning support.

Our teachers traditionally provide individual, weekly lessons of 55–60 minutes, working closely with students and their families to support their learning and build confidence.

Students are referred through the Dyslexia PLUS office. Teachers and parents enter into a formal agreement outlining lesson times and locations, payment arrangements, and expectations around communication and support.

Our specialist teachers have completed training to work with specific learning difficulties, including dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia. Experienced Teacher Aides who are interested in pursuing this pathway may also have the opportunity to undertake specialist training under the guidance of a mentor. This pathway involves a longer period of training and development than the teacher pathway.

If you are an enthusiastic educator who would like to develop specialist expertise and make a meaningful difference for children and families, we would love to hear from you.

Join us in helping Dyslexia PLUS Whangārei continue to grow and extend specialist learning support services to children and families across the Whangārei community.
