• You've spent time with kids in any setting, a job, babysitting, tutoring, coaching, camp, or your own family, and you learned something from it
• You can hold a group's attention and gently bring them back when it wanders
• You're creative, patient, and positive, even on the sticky, chaotic days
• You know SEL and STEAM, or you're excited to learn
