By partnering with high school students in the heart of KCK, the Learning Club Teaching Internship is able to provide enriching mentorship sessions for local elementary school students and valuable work experience for interns. The Learning Club Teaching Internship includes interns from all six Kansas City, Kansas public high schools and Bishop Ward at four tutoring sites.
For their service with the Learning Club, interns receive a monthly stipend, job experience, and training in education and child development. Transportation is provided for high school interns to and from the sites, so all KCKPS students are welcome to apply.
During a typical school year, the Learning Club Teaching Internship involves more than 75 high school students who conduct one-on-one tutoring with students in kindergarten through 6th grade.
Providing high school interns with job skills and community leadership roles coincides with the Learning Club’s vision to provide a positive, pivotal educational experience for the children in Kansas City who need it most.
"My experience with Learning Club has been amazing. My passion for teaching has become broader and Learning Club is a place for me until I can get my degree in teaching. My plans are to continue working with Learning Club for my remaining years in high school." -- Caleb H., Learning Club intern 2021-22, Wyandotte High School class of 2025
"I’ve enjoyed being an intern this year because I got to work one on one with students and learn more about their goals and interests. Being an intern at Learning Club has been a blessing. I’ve met so many amazing people and I’m glad I am able to give back to the community. I feel like I’ve made a difference, I am so happy that I was able to support and help encourage students." --Mayra B., Learning Club intern 2021-22, Wyandotte High School class of 2022
