Hungarian-Speaking Specialist Support

We are seeking a compassionate, flexible, and engaging

Bilingual Specialist Support Tutor or Hungarian-Speaking Educational

Translator to provide bespoke 1

1 home-based provision for a Year 2 child with an Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP).

The child has complex needs, is non-verbal, and has comprehension levels significantly below age-related expectations. Traditional academic tutoring will not apply here; the focus is entirely on engagement, interaction, sensory exploration, and building a trusted routine.

Because the family speaks Hungarian and the mother has very limited English, a fluent or proficient Hungarian speaker is essential to bridge communication, build trust, and ensure the family is fully included in the sessions.
