Pearl River Public Library Pearl River, NY
(2019-2021)

I worked at the Pearl River Public Library for approximately 2 years, instructing robotics courses for kids spanning from 1st grade to 8th grade. Each class accommodated 12 to 20 kids, and there were about 4 to 6 classes conducted annually. I designed curricula for each course and oversaw all materials required. Often, I led the classes with the assistance of trained volunteers.

I secured this role through volunteering at the library and aiding in teaching other courses. Over time, a library staff member recognized my capabilities and offered me the opportunity to teach my own course. This job provided valuable lessons, including collaboration and effective teamwork. Additionally, it enhanced my skills in time management, as I needed to plan classes without disrupting my schedule during the school year. Many of these acquired skills have proven applicable to various facets of my life.
