Who you travel with matters. We are passionate educators, community builders, and inspired human beings.
Dragons instructor community is supported by an administrative team comprised of veteran guides, program directors, risk managers, and curriculum developers based in both in Colorado and abroad. The majority of Dragons admin team has instructed in the field for Dragons and thus experientially understand the myriad dynamics involved in creating profound cross-cultural learning experiences.
To learn more about the team of people that support Dragons international programming in the field, please peruse the admin team profiles.
We feel honored to work with an incredible group of global educators. With an average of 4+ years living abroad and local language fluency, our instructors have developed the skills to return to communities as cross-cultural liaisons. Our instructors draw upon personal networks to create opportunities for connection and guide participants as they navigate inter-cultural nuances. We hope you take a moment to get to know them.
Dragons has long benefited from the heroic work and incredible hospitality of our community partners. We’re excited to introduce you to their diverse perspectives on all issues, local and global. Apart from supporting students as they become familiar in a new environment, community partners are successful educators in their own right, bringing a passion for critical global issues, and a love of place to the experience. They are at the center of all that we offer.
Just a few examples include:
Pachitulul, Guatemala
El Alto, Bolivia
Northeast Nicaragua
Dakar, Senegal
