Term
Throughout the year
The position will entail helping to care for over 50 mentally and physically disabled people with the other administration staff. Applicants should have a genuine interest in either disability services and/ or English language tutoring. There will be scheduled classes where you will lead a group in teaching basic English communication skills. You must be patient and compassionate--your students will be quite shy at first and it may take some time for you to become a familiar and friendly face. Interns will play a crucial role in fostering independence among disabled persons, giving them an opportunity to help themselves. The experienced and caring staff will provide support to interns regarding any difficulties they may encounter as they adjust to the position.

The Institute for Cultural Ecology was founded on the conviction that visits to exotic destinations imply a commitment to cultural sensitivity and environmental stewardship. Our programs match the interests, academic goals, and passions of the participant to select host organizations and researchers. Once you connect with a place and its people, they become a part of you. Forever.
