A British couple are advertising for a Harry Potter themed tutor to help teach their son, Toby, science. They have asked for the tutor to use “wizard-like” phrases and use props to make the lessons more engaging. The tutor will have to be in costume and the family have said “there will beed to be 100% effort into the lessons, wands, quills and other wizarding student accessories are welcome.”
The initial suggestions are to dress as Professor Snape while tutoring chemistry (“potions”), Professor Sprout for biology lessons (“herbology”), and Professor Hooch to tutor physics (“flying lessons”). They will turn their kitchen in Hogwarts to create an immersive experience for Toby.
Despite the unusual nature of the tuition request, the couple are very serious about the tutor and quality of lessons. They are offering £75 an hour for the right tutor, including paying for all costume and prop expenses. The successful candidate will also have to have 4 years of science tutoring experience and a keen interest in the Harry Potter books.
