Description
My name is Justin Jackson and I am currently pursuing a gap year through the Morehead Cain Scholarship at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I am searching for experiences immersing myself in brand new cultures, specifically by interacting with, helping, or teaching groups of students or children in foreign countries. I have been a private tutor for multiple years and have stepped up as a leader in numerous youth groups within my school and local community. I enjoy cooking, sports, nature, learning languages and music.

More details about your skills
I am an avid learner, finding success at all courses throughout the high school and even college level, including advanced calculus, Spanish, literature and various history classes. I frequently work with students as a private tutor, ages 10-20 and also volunteer within my community in a multitude of clubs or organizations that require me to lead groups of peers or younger members. I have spent my whole life outdoors playing sports or exploring nature and am looking to branch out to see as much of the world as possible. I plan on majoring in business, statistics and public policy, hoping to combine these three fields in a career that revolves around my ability to help or teach others.

Working with Justin was great. He was always well-prepared, organised, and able to come up with his own ideas for entertaining and educating the kids. It’s usually quite difficult for me to watch other people take over my classes, but I didn’t have that problem with him. Justin did a really great job. He prepared for the classes and followed the… read more

I can’t say enough about how great my experience was in Bechyne with Zuzka and Petr. I taught English to kids aged 9-15 for a couple weeks, describing my home nation and playing many academic games that allowed me to learn about the students’ lives as well. The kids at the school are energetic, curious and would consistently want to spend time… read more
