Consideration may be given to applicants who are recent university graduates.
It is advantageous, but not a requirement, for tutor applicants to have experience in tutoring. For applicants who do not have previous tutoring experience, RESN will provide support and training, including through observation and shadowing sessions

Your Responsibilities:
- You'll be volunteering around 2–4 hours per week to support students from regional and rural communities.
