“I had the best summer experience as an SC. Not only was I able to see how I made an impact on nine amazing kids’ lives, but also I learned a lot about myself during the nine weeks. I wish Ihad known about this program earlier on in college so that I could havethe opportunity to be an SC again.”

“Being an SC is one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. You not only teach the kids some math and reading, you form deep, true relationships with the kids, parents, and communities. I have gained so much personally: I have learned a lot about racial issues and urban lifestyle, I have become accustomed to working in a professional setting and working with parents and the community, I have learned howto teach and plan lessons, I have become very capable at managing a groupof children, and I have fallen in love with the kids, the community, andthis form of community service. In addition, I can tell that my workhas made actual impacts on the children’s individual lives. Eachone has grown in some way–some big, some smaller–and I know that muchof those improvements can be attributed to what I have done at camp thissummer. To have such a positive impact on kids is the most amazingexperience. I loved it.”

“It was a bigger than life experience that cannot be simply encapsulated into any single description of the experience. I’ve grown so tremendously over the summer and learned so much from my teaching experience!”
