Camp Teaching Assistant
MyCocoz Camp is a proprietary 4-day AI literacy program for kids ages 8–12. Over 8 hours of facilitated workshops, every camper learns how to use AI prompting skills to write, illustrate, and produce their own story — finishing the week as a published author with a real printed book they made themselves.
We have a fully designed, day-by-day curriculum and app, you'll be trained before your first session. No prior AI experience required.
The Role You'll work directly alongside Raj Oswal, MyCocoz founder and lead facilitator, as a teaching assistant and co-facilitator for our proprietary 4-day AI literacy camp. This is a hands-on role — you'll be in the room, supporting campers, helping run activities, and learning the curriculum from the inside.
In addition to the 5 camp sessions, there are optional 90-minute co-facilitation workshops available throughout the summer for those who want additional hours and experience.
