Formal teaching experience isn’t always required. Camps are looking for people who are skilled in their activity and passionate about sharing it safely and confidently with others.
Think about times you’ve taught or helped family, friends or teammates, it’s valuable experience that’s well worth including on your application.
While Skilled Summers specialises in placing applicants into roles that match their skills, we also recruit General Camp Counsellors. If we’re unable to match you to a specialist role, you may still be offered a Camp Counsellor position, provided you meet the requirements. In some cases, camps may also ask skilled instructors to take responsibility for a cabin of campers alongside leading their activity, so the two roles can often overlap.
We also look for applicants with a background in working with children and adults with special needs. This can include physical, learning and developmental disabilities. We work with some amazing camps with top facilities looking for skilled and passionate staff to ensure their campers have the summer of a lifetime.
To apply for this role, you need to have a complete understanding about what the role involves, previous experience is preferred but not essential.
Camps are interested in people looking for careers in health and the social care sector so it would be a perfect addition to your CV!
Think about a time you may have helped teach family or friends, it’s valuable experience worth including on your application.
