Through Riverways Education Partnerships (formerly the Pipeline Project), UW undergraduates tutor, mentor and support K-12 students in Seattle schools, as well as rural and tribal communities across the state. Our project transforms the learning and inspires the growth of both UW and K-12 students, while addressing inequities in public education in Washington State.
We are looking for an undergraduate intern with experience in video production and editing to help us create community and support among tutors, provide program support, and increase Riverways’ visibility on campus through video content.
Being a Riverways intern is a great opportunity to build your leadership skills, learn about education program coordination, and build community. Riverways interns are integral to keeping the program running smoothly. While the Riverways intern team primarily reports to the Education Equity AmeriCorps member on the Riverways Staff, interns are brought into the fold of the entire team.
Interns would work approximately 5 hours a week (flexible scheduling) including 1 all-intern meeting once a week. While these positions are unpaid, we can offer compensation in the form of General Studies Credit.
