Working ten minutes from home made for easy mornings. My coworkers, for the most part, became fast friends and someone I knew I could lean on. I loved working with the kids especially since I want to be a teacher.
What I wish was different
I wish that everyone knew what they were getting into before the camp started. Many of the other counselors didn't know we were going to tutor for two hours a day and that behavior management was going to play such a crucial role in how that day went.
Advice
I think it is an amazing opportunity for anyone wanting to be a teacher it is a combination of school and fun so it teaches you a lot.

More collaboration with the other camps to get everyone involved as well as to get to know each other
