EXPLO

Cybersecurity Instructor

What I liked

Getting to know my students, and watching them learn and grow. If you want to be an educator of any kind, it’s important to want to make connections with your students.

What I wish was different

I wish I had had more time to make my curriculum. It was a bit last minute, so it was not as fully developed as I would have liked.

Advice

Not even limited to this expereince, know what you’re signing up for. Learn as much as you can about what it’s like, that way there won’t be any (or at least many) surprises along the way.

What I liked

At EXPLO, I was an instructor for the Business and Entrepreneurship course and Digital Photography workshop. I really enjoyed building relationships with my students and seeing their excitement to learn. I enjoyed gaining skills in teaching, public speaking, professionalism, and learning about my content. This is a perfect summer job for anyone interested in being a teacher one day or wants to work with kids. If you aren't interested in either, it is still a good summer job to gain valuable skills.
