Instructors directly help us meet our mission by volunteering their time to learn more and serve as ambassadors. As an instructor you are an integral part in teaching; providing marine science and sailing programs to local students who would not have this opportunity without you.  This position meets internship and service learning requirements.

​

This trip requires no experience in marine biology, sailing or teaching, only a strong willingness to learn and excitement for teaching local children.

​

Cost is $4500, which includes boat accommodations, sailing and educational science training, and food for the entirety of trip as well as making the program free for the youth we serve that are experiencing disadvantages.
