The Missouri Botanical Garden is seeking Volunteer Instructors. Volunteer Instructors are asked to make a commitment of four hours – one day a week – from September through December and February through May. Instructors typically teach classes as a team, leading groups of approximately 10 students each.
Instructor training will take place at the Missouri Botanical Garden on Monday, Aug. 19 through Friday, Aug. 23 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Volunteers will learn inquiry-based outdoor teaching strategies and have many opportunities to observe school groups and practice teaching before being assigned to lead a group.
For more information, contact Jackie Juras, volunteer program manager, at 314-577-5187 or jackie.juras@mobot.org. For a complete list of volunteer opportunities currently available, visit www.mobot.org/volunteer.
