Job description
The role
Activity Leaders are the heart of our summer schools. They bring the fun and social element to our courses. Maybe you are sports mad, love arts and crafts, can make a game out of nothing or just someone who loves to chat to anyone and everyone. Whatever your talent we want to hear from you!
Running a variety of activities you will engage with our students, who can all speak basic English as a minimum, and get them to mix with different nationalities and practice their English.
You will make lots of new friends and although there may be some long days, you will gain lots of new skills which will look great on your CV. Skills such as leadership, collaboration, problem solving, resilience, organisation, cross-cultural communication to name just a few, all competencies which future employers are looking for.
