Want to be a mentor at Camp Brownwood?
Our mentorship program offers teens and young adults the opportunity to learn how to work in a team and to help the teachers at Camp Brownwood run the ship smoothly.
Your job will be to mentor and help the kids during the activities, as well as to hang out with them during free-time!
Since our camp’s primary language is English, you will be responsible for minimizing the language barrier and helping them understand the instructions they’re given.
This is a huge opportunity for you to boost your own language skills by being immersed in a fully English-speaking community!
As camp comes to an end, you’ll also be given the opportunity to practice what you’ve learned by organizing and hosting your own workshop for the kids.
Aside from all this, you will have your very own “Teacher of Mentors” with whom you’ll have daily workshops where you can develop your skills and learn. You’ll get to meet your Mentor at a pre-camp workshop.
