Close Up Foundation

Program Instructor

January - June 2023 • Washington, DC

What I liked

This position was an amazing opportunity that allowed me to engage with students from across the country and share my passion for history and government. I loved the supportive staff, the diversity in student groups, the travel opportunities within program, and the ability to make a difference and empower students each week.

What I wish was different

The work days can be long on program, but the work is rewarding and the time allows you to form great connections with students and fellow staff.

Advice

Come into the work with an open-mindset, a willingness to learn, and an enthusiasm for the program experience. All of these will help you to strengthen your skill set during the program season and enjoy the work.
