Ben has worked with UIC for 2 summers now. As a trainee Physical Education teacher I feel that working at UIC has really helped with my professional development. I was in my first year at university when I first worked at the summer camp, and the skills and experince I gained as an activty leader really helped in preparing me for teaching placements in the coming year. Working for UIC is a very enjoyable experience due to the brilliant kids and enthusiastic staff, which is why I am planning to return for my third year.  I am currently in my final year of teacher training and therefore looking for jobs. UIC looks fantastic on application forms or CVs and employers I found are always very keen to find out more about the summer camp experience. Working for UIC has been such a memorable experince for me and I’ve met some great people over the years; I will never forget it!
