Where There Be Dragons is currently accepting applications for field instructors.
Positions include 6-8 week summer commitments (training in the US beginning June 13th + international program) and college-accredited semester programs for cross-cultural experiential education programs in Bolivia and Peru.

Applicants should have a well-demonstrated dedication, passion, skill set, understanding of the region. We empower our instructor teams to use their own in-country resources, contacts, and relationships.

Dragons’ instructors set the industry standard: They are committed educators who are intent on facilitating deep personal learning, reflection, and growth through meaningful cross-cultural experiences. When not guiding with Dragons, our instructors are graduate students, returned Peace Corps Volunteers, U.N. development professionals, veteran guides, and career teachers - all of whom share a passion for exploration, adventure, and hands-on learning through authentic, low-impact travel experiences.
