We are looking to hire a Guitar Instructor for our 2025 summer season. Responsibilities for this role include creating lesson plans and teaching guitar lessons to small groups of campers aged 8-15. Camper skill level varies (but leans heavily toward beginner). This will require high energy, hands-on instruction, and a foundational knowledge of guitar playing. This role is ideal for a candidate with an interest in guitar, teaching and youth development. Experience working with children is recommended.
At Chippewa Ranch Camp, our foundational objective is to foster in campers the development of lasting friendships; an understanding of community and partnership; new interests and new skills; self-confidence; far-reaching goals; creativity, humor and colorful imaginations; a respect for diversity and culture and the spirit of kindness, generosity, empathy and love—all within the boundaries of a safe and healthy environment. It is our hope that, among other camp experiences, campers’ time at activities such as Guitar, and under the guidance of staff such as yourself, will aid in the development of these characteristics and mindsets.
Essential skills for this role include flexibility, enthusiasm, initiative, patience, problem solving and communication.
Compensation includes a competitive salary, room, board and a travel stipend.
Dates: June 1 – August 7, 2025
