Internship: Summer Camp, Educational Center Cosmopolitan

Deadline to Apply: Rolling, apply as soon as possible

As summer is fast approaching, the Educational Center “Cosmopolitan”, Novosibirsk, Russia, is happy to announce that vacancies are still available for our popular summer internship programs that are located in outskirts of Novosibirsk and the Altai Mountain region. 

The summer internships are offered from mid-June until the end of July at the children’s camps in the aforementioned locations, in three sessions, lasting two weeks each.

These internship positions are open to university students of all levels of Russian ranging from absolute beginner to advanced. No previous teaching experience is required. The internship comprises of teaching foreign languages, leading creativity workshops, working as a camp counselor, and etc.  Participation in our internship program allows your students to gain valuable skills and experience for their future professions. More importantly in addition to this, they will be immersed in Russian culture and have intensive Russian language lessons catered to their needs and ability. Internship fees are very reasonable.

Here are just 3 great reasons out of a slew of others you should consider enrolling in our summer camp internship:

1. You will improve your Russian and develop professional skills to take with you throughout your career.

- Immersion has been long recognized as one of the best ways to improve one’s language ability. While the camp is staffed by employees who are able to speak English your will, for the most part, be in a Russian speaking environment.  Starting from day one you will be able to practice your listening and conversational skills outside of your Russian classes. Your work experience at our camp will help you develop many essential skills such as flexibility and adaptability; teaching skills; social and cross-cultural skills; initiative, leadership and responsibility  – and so many more. The skills learned at the camp are perfect for adding to your CV or resume.

2. It’s Siberia!

- Despite having been open to the West for some time, Siberia still remains to many as an elusive and exotic destination. The Novosibirsk session offers a tour of the city. The tour includes visits to parks, museums, and the chance to view a world-class performance at the famous Opera House. For the Altai Mountain session, there is an exciting excursion and tourist program that comprises of many exciting tourist activities such as rafting, horseback riding, hiking, camping, excursions. Tours of Novosibirsk and trips to the beautiful Siberian towns of Tomsk, Irkutsk and to the magnificent Lake Baikal can be organized between and after the camp sessions.

3. You will make lifelong friends and have memories which will last a lifetime.

Everyone talks about the community at the camp, and that is because it is unlike anything you will experience at any other place. When you work, play, eat, and sleep with the same group of people for several weeks of the summer you develop friendships that will last long after the summer ends. The friends made at the camp are amongst the closest you'll ever have. The camp may only last for summer but the experiences you gain and share with your new best friends will last forever.

We encourage students to take advantage of this excellent opportunity to join our exciting, highly affordable, meaningful and safe summer internship program.
