How much do summer vex robotics jobs pay per hour?

As of Jun 9, 2026, the average hourly pay for summer vex robotics in the United States is $15.89, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $13.46 and $17.55 per hour, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is the difference between Summer Vex Robotics vs Summer Robotics Camp Instructor?

AspectSummer Vex RoboticsSummer Robotics Camp Instructor
CredentialsBasic robotics knowledge, possibly VEX certificationRobotics experience, teaching or camp leadership skills
Work EnvironmentRobotics competitions, workshops, summer campsEducational settings, summer camps, youth programs
Industry UsageRobotics education, STEM outreachSTEM education, youth mentorship
Common Search/ComparisonRobotics competitions, summer robotics programsSummer camp jobs, robotics teaching roles

Summer Vex Robotics roles focus on designing, building, and competing with VEX robotics kits during summer programs, emphasizing technical skills. Summer Robotics Camp Instructors typically lead and teach robotics activities to youth, combining technical knowledge with teaching abilities. While both involve robotics education, VEX roles are more competition-oriented, whereas camp instructor roles focus on instruction and mentorship in summer camps.

What types of projects or challenges can I expect to work on as part of a Summer Vex Robotics team?

As a member of a Summer Vex Robotics team, you'll typically participate in hands-on projects such as building, programming, and testing robots to complete specific tasks or compete in team-based challenges. These projects often involve collaborating with peers to brainstorm solutions, troubleshoot mechanical or coding issues, and iterate on your designs. You'll likely rotate through roles like designer, builder, and programmer, providing a well-rounded experience. This environment encourages creative problem-solving, teamwork, and practical application of STEM concepts.

What are Summer VEX Robotics programs?

Summer VEX Robotics programs are educational camps or workshops held during the summer months that focus on teaching students about robotics using VEX Robotics kits. These programs provide hands-on experience in designing, building, and programming robots, often culminating in friendly competitions. Participants learn valuable STEM skills such as engineering, problem-solving, teamwork, and coding. Summer VEX Robotics programs are suitable for students of various ages and skill levels, making them a popular choice for those interested in technology and innovation.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Summer VEX Robotics Instructor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Summer VEX Robotics Instructor, you need a solid understanding of robotics principles, programming (often in languages like Python or C++), and experience with VEX Robotics kits, usually supported by a STEM background or relevant coursework. Familiarity with VEXcode, RobotC, or similar platforms, and the ability to troubleshoot hardware and software issues are important. Strong communication, patience, and the ability to inspire and engage students are crucial soft skills. These skills ensure effective instruction, student engagement, and a positive learning environment that fosters STEM exploration.

Job description

Education Unlimited® provides academic summer camps & pre-college summer programs for students entering grades 4-12. Our summer programs include public speaking camps, college admissions prep programs, science camps, summer acting camp, writing camps, computer camp, leadership camp, video production camp, and college tours.

Course Description: 

In Robotics, students will explore the emerging science of robot mechanics as they build and program their robot from scratch, remotely control it, experiment with light and pressure sensors, create drive trains for varying terrains, and play robotic sports.Students will use the VEX5 robotics platform, the world’s premier classroom robotics platform. We will begin by building a chassis - a stable structure to provide physical support and like a skeleton.  This chassis holds everything in place and is the building block from which other systems can be added. Next, we will mount motors to the chassis and add wheels and gears to complete the drive system so our robot can move as we learn about speed and torque.  We will conclude the week with a fully functioning robot that we have programmed to overcome obstacles and defeat challenges at our command. 
As we build and program our robots, we will explore electrical circuits and built power (batteries) as well as communications systems (radio controller) for our robots. As we employ design thinking we will learn about the engineering process to brainstorm, design, construct, test, and redesign as we used our robots to solve problems. Finally, we will enhance our robots with sensors, robotic arms, and programming as we test their capabilities in several early challenges, including terrain challenge and a transportation challenge! Our week will culminate in a finale presentation challenge of designing a robotics sports competition!

VEX Robotics Camp Instructor 

Available sessions: Instructors may be hired for one session or for multiple sessions of this program. Please indicate your availability on your application. 

Flight, Housing and Meals Provided: 

  • Week of July 5 @ UC Berkeley - Middle School Robotics 
  • Week of July 19 @ Stanford - High School Robotics Robotics 
  • Week of July 26 @ Stanford - Middle School Robotics Robotics 
  • Week of August 2 @ Stanford - Middle School Robotics Robotics 
  • Two-Week HS Competition Intensive - Weeks of July 19 and July 26 

Education Unlimited seeks energetic and experienced VEX V5 Robotics instructors for our fun, activity-based summer programs.

In-person class opportunities available: 

In-person Camp Responsibilities include teaching the Education Unlimited curriculum, supervising campers both in and out of the classroom, organizing and leading classroom labs, and executing a finale showcasing student work at the end of camp. Instructors will also be responsible for tracking student work and handing in any deliverables to the camp director and EU home office. 

In addition to teaching responsibilities, instructors should be available and willing to assist the camp director with active supervision, recreational activities, and some administrative tasks. Instructors should be mature, reliable, and able to work well with fellow staffers. Instructors are also expected to act as mentors, and will be asked to assist with field trips and guide students on excursions. With the support of the entire staff, instructors are responsible for the health and safety of students, in addition to fulfilling instructional objectives.
