We will be holding our free Summer Leadership Academy in St. Louis City this July, and we invite members of the community to apply to be
EEC Instructors. Our summer academy is designed to give underserved kids
an excellent summer educational opportunity during which they will work on the
core academic subjects while developing their own leadership skills. This is
also a great opportunity for volunteers interested in working with kids as an
instructor and mentor. EEC Instructors will receive ongoing training in classroom
management, lesson planning, and differentiated instruction.
This year, our kids will play a global leadership game over three weeks during which they will have to make their countries’ decisions as they face multiple crises. We will also be inviting experts to help answer our kids’ questions. Volunteers will serve as national advisors, helping kids guide their own learning. Volunteers will also serve in more traditional classroom teaching roles for our youngest students. We work with kids from kindergarten through high school.
EEC Instructors include college
students of diverse majors and backgrounds, teachers-in-training, retired
teachers, highly-dedicated high school students, and many others. We can
accommodate part-time volunteers.
Our program is scheduled for July
2015, tentatively from 7/6-7/24, weekdays from 9:00AM - 2:00PM. The exact
timing will depend on site availability.
