The Heart J Center at Sylvan Dale is seeking writers who want to teach students a writing course! Teachers lead students ages 6-18 years old through a creative writing, songwriting, poetry, whatever you’re passionate about! Sylvan Dale’s 3,200 acres provides endless inspiration to writers and their students. The river, mountains, horses, wildlife, a historic homestead and ranching life all serve as subjects for creativity. (No previous teaching experience necessary.)
The Heart-J Center provides hands-on learning for all ages within the beautiful setting of historic Sylvan Dale Ranch. We offer a broad array of field trips, workshops, retreats, and scientific research, all making the most of Sylvan Dale’s unique location and beautiful setting. In addition to our schedule of educational events, we welcome partnerships with nonprofit groups, educational institutions, and others interested in working with us to create customized learning experiences. Our volunteers help us make it all happen.
