I loved teaching children about animals and the environment. It was a very fun experience to see all of them get so excited about all of our activities that we did. My coworkers were also great, it was a very good working environment.

Advice
One piece of advice I would share would to be to make sure you are always hydrated. It is very hot as you spend a majority of your time outside, and to make sure you have good walking shoes.
