One of the key strengths of Cumorah Academy is the dedicated team working behind the scenes to prepare for each semester. Staff members focus on logistics such as classrooms, accommodations, meals, and trips. Every detail is planned carefully so that students can focus on learning and building friendships instead of worrying about practical issues.
From the moment you receive your acceptance email, a group of people begins preparing everything you will need for a smooth arrival. They review documents, coordinate transportation, and assign rooms to make sure your first day is stress-free. This organized effort is what makes student life at Cumorah Academy so unique. Students quickly notice that every aspect of their experience has been planned with care, from the first meal on campus to the structure of their daily schedule.
Why Preparation Shapes Student Life at Cumorah Academy
At Cumorah Academy, the student experience starts long before you arrive on campus. From the moment you are accepted, our team begins planning every detail.
Think of it like a theater production. Every semester is a new performance. The staff prepares, rehearses, and coordinates every aspect so the “show” runs perfectly. There’s no routine. Each semester receives the same energy, care, and passion—because every student deserves a fresh, inspiring experience.

What Happens Before You Arrive
Here’s a closer look at what happens before you set foot on campus. These steps make sure you feel confident, supported, and ready for the semester.
Interns: Learning and Leading
Interns come from different areas—English teaching, sales bootcamp, business, marketing, and more. They often interact with students daily, whether in classrooms, workshops, or activities.
Teaching interns receive training on lesson planning, teaching strategies, and assignment grading. In all their realms, every intern understands their specific tasks, daily and weekly goals, and much more. Some of them have teaching activities, while others work more behind the scenes of campus life.
SLIs: Guiding the Student Journey
Student Liaison Interns (SLIs) coordinate student groups, lead activities, and create a supportive community.
Before students arrive, SLIs attend leadership and mentorship training. They learn how to manage groups, resolve challenges, and foster team spirit. Their preparation ensures that every student has guidance academically, socially, and spiritually throughout the semester. This training turns SLIs into trusted mentors and role models, ready to help students thrive.
Staff: Coordinating and Supporting Behind the Scenes
Campus coordinators, teachers, and administrative staff also undergo extensive pre-semester training. They practice logistics, plan schedules, and coordinate communication strategies with interns and SLIs. This ensures that accommodations, classrooms, and campus operations are ready for students from day one. Their preparation guarantees that student life at Cumorah Academy is smooth, well-organized, and welcoming for every student.
In every aspect of training, Cumorah’s founder and CEO, Patrick Sediviy, is observing closely the training of every intern, leader, teacher, and coordinator who will come to campus.
The People Behind the Scenes
When you step into your room, it feels effortless. But every comfort comes from someone’s work:
- Someone cleaned your space before you arrived.
- Someone prepared your first meal on campus.
- Someone checked your travel documents and flight details.
Every part of student life at Cumorah Academy is supported by people who care deeply about your journey.
Weeks before the semester begins, interns, SLIs, and staff gather for planning meetings and training sessions. These sessions are designed to prepare everyone to guide and support students effectively. By the time students arrive, the team is ready, organized, and aligned.
Training Creates Unity
The pre-semester meetings and trainings create a strong sense of teamwork. Interns, SLIs, and staff learn their roles, coordinate tasks, and practice communication strategies. By the time students arrive, the team works as a unified family.
This effort is one of the reasons student life at Cumorah Academy feels organized, welcoming, and inspiring. Students often sense this harmony even before they realize how much planning and training went into it.
