Description:

Since 1993, Broadreach has created exceptional, small group learning experiences that inspire and empower students to find potential in the world through hands-on exploration. Broadreach marine biology courses combine a college curriculum with adventure to create dynamic learning experiences. High school and college students can earn college credit while traveling with a small group of peers to Belize, Bahamas, the Caribbean, Curacao,and Fiji. Students participate in lectures, discussions, scuba diving and field research, as well as activities that build leadership and teamwork. Our goal is that students gain new skills, new friends and have more fun learning than they ever thought possible. Broadreach Instructors are expected to educate, mentor and inspire students everyday. This is a 24/7 position with limited free-time or personal space.

Managing health and safety, maintaining a positive attitude through challenging circumstances, leading games, participating in service learning activities, teaching, developing students' personal growth, facilitating inclusive group dynamics and demonstrating respectful travel are just a few of the many responsibilities of a Broadreach Instructor. Broadreach Study Abroad Adventures are fun, rewarding and demanding. Each course is approximately three weeks long and is mentally and physically challenging. Our most successful instructors are positive, flexible, team players who are able to create a fun, cohesive and supportive community. Groups typically have 8 - 14 students and 2 - 3 Broadreach Instructors. Contracts range from three to eight weeks from early June through mid-August.
