Location: Houston, Texas
Salary: $12/hour
Environmental Education Interns work side by side with our Naturalist teaching staff to deliver educational lessons and activities for children ranging from toddlers to 12 years old during week-long summer camp programs and family classes. Interns participate in 1 week of training and rotate through various summer camp duties for 10 weeks. We believe nature is the best classroom, so we deliver hands-on lessons in an outdoor, natural environment. Our educational programs are fun, creative, innovative, and we hold our content and program delivery to the highest standards. All instructors must have the ability to engage and direct kids in a variety of settings and group sizes, while clearly explaining science and conservation topics. Equally important is a passion for sparking curiosity, modeling enthusiasm, and inspiring a lifelong appreciation of environmental stewardship.
