Why should I teach outdoor education at camp?

Love being outdoors? Are you a thrill-seeker with a taste for adventure?

If the answer is yes, then the outdoor education instructor role is for you.

Being an outdoor education instructor at camp is the ultimate job if you're willing to push yourself out of your comfort zone. No two days will be the same as you to lead by example in helping individuals to accomplish their goals and conquer their fears.

Passion, enthusiasm and willingness to learn are what Camp Directors look for in all of their outdoor education instructors. Make sure that your application provides practical examples that demonstrate all of these qualities.

What does an outdoor education instructor do?

  • Belaying campers as they use the high/low ropes course
  • Sending children up the climbing wall and/or down the zip-line

These are just a few examples of the energetic activities you could be leading. Outdoor education at each camp is different, that's the thrill of this adventure!
