About the Role
As a Creative Writing Camp Summer Intern, you’ll play a hands-on role in shaping the next generation of young writers. You’ll assist lead instructors with engaging writing workshops, guide students in brainstorming and developing their creative ideas, and help create a positive and inspiring learning environment. Interns will also support classroom management, prepare materials for daily activities, and take part in fun, interactive lessons designed to spark creativity.
Beyond working with students, interns will gain valuable experience in mentorship, teamwork, and event coordination, all while building connections with fellow interns, professional writers, and educators. Whether you're leading small groups, assisting with storytelling exercises, or organizing exciting writing games, you'll be making a meaningful impact while honing your own communication and leadership skills.
