Educational Therapist - Numeracy (MOE / IB / IGCSE)

About the Role
KidzOTC is seeking an Educational Therapist with strong numeracy confidence to support learners across primary and secondary levels.

• Design intervention plans aligned to MOE, IB, or IGCSE expectations, covering number sense, operations, fractions/decimals/percentages, ratio/rates, algebra foundations, geometry, and word-problem heuristics.
• Deliver 1:1 and small-group sessions for students with dyscalculia, ADHD, dyspraxia/DCD, ASD, or executive function challenges.
• Use structured, evidence-based approaches (visual-concrete-abstract, scaffolding, metacognition, error analysis).
• Track progress and report outcomes clearly to families and collaborate with the wider team.
• Work closely with OTs/ETs and parents to ensure consistency and support beyond the clinic.
