Meet The Team
Our team at Eastern Outreach is the best in the game.
Our team is at the heart of everything we do. Each of our tutors is highly skilled, fully trained, and passionate about helping young people reach their potential. With a wealth of experience across education, mentoring, and youth support, they know how to engage, inspire, and build confidence.
We take pride in matching each young person with the right tutor for their needs — someone who will guide them with patience, understanding, and encouragement. Whether it’s improving functional skills, preparing for interviews, or navigating big transitions, our team is here to make a difference every step of the way.
We Provide The Best Transitional Support
We know that life after Year 11 can feel overwhelming — especially if the traditional route isn’t the right fit. That’s where we come in. Our Post-16 Transition support is all about helping young people find the right next step, whether that’s college, sixth form, or an apprenticeship — and making sure they feel confident getting there.
