Interns may choose to participate in music, physical education, and art classes in addition to the regular curriculum. Intern opportunities exist in the environmental program through the land stewardship module, environmental education module and specific projects. Interns may work as classroom assistants for regular classes in reading and math, class preparation and management, or also with individuals or small groups needing remedial help with English, reading or math. Correspondence with CEC and the GG director to design a specific internship will be necessary before departure. Staff changes regularly as do the volunteers.
Interns are most successful if they come with specific rather than general skills.
Little direction is given so interns must be able to quickly assess the situation and begin working where they see their skills fitting in the best. None required for internship, however, Spanish equivalent to second year at the university level will facilitate everyday living activities. Very casual attire needed for teaching. Must be able to walk an hour a day to work and an hour back. Cost not covered by employer.
