Photography instructor
Organisation
London Borough of Enfield Libraries
We are looking for enthusiastic volunteer photographers to teach participants photography and photo editing using library equipment and software. Since the camera must stay on-site, the focus will be on photography theory and editing techniques, with practical photography sessions conducted at the library.
Role Responsibilities:
- Arrive at the library to lead photography sessions.
- Teach participants how to use cameras and photo editing software.
- Develop lesson plans as the club grows (initial sessions may focus on specific participant goals, such as taking effective eBay photos, understanding composition, or using filters).
- Work with participants of all ages and backgrounds.
- Schedule sessions at a regular day and time convenient for you (to be discussed during the interview).
- Conduct sessions lasting at least one hour.
The club should be at a set day and time that
works for you, we would discuss with the volunteer during an interview stage.
The sessions will be at least 1 hour long.
