1. Kids in the Kitchen: Interns will teach bi-weekly cooking sessions of Kids in the Kitchen, a program at Paul's Place where students in the after-school program prepare and cook meals to take home to their families. Interns will be mentored by the KiK coordinator, they will participate in an orientation session in early September to learn about the program, and then each week will be expected to review and know the lesson and recipe so that they can guide the volunteers and students in the successful making of the recipe. KiK sessions happen twice a month, and interns should pick one day of the week and commit to coming to all of the sessions on that day. Interns should be responsible, have some experience teaching, have a passion for cooking and nutrition, and a desire to learn. Interns will be paid a $250 stipend; Paul's Place is happy to work with university students who want to receive credit for this internship. Prospective interns should submit a resume and cover letter detailing why they are interested in participating in the program. Interviews will be conducted in late August.
These positions require a time commitment of 8 hours per week. Fellows must be available Monday and Wednesday OR Tuesday and Thursday (days can be flexible though) from 2:45-6:00pm. A stipend of $1100 is offered for fulfillment of the total commitment of 8 hours per week for given time period. The after school program will potentially run from Mid October 2015- Beginning of May 2016. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact Mr. Zach Pekor! You can stop by his office (Room 106C Academic Services Building), email him at zpekor@umbc.edu, or call him at 410.455.1501. Application for this position is attached.
