Summary

As a Delve teacher, you can teach any AP subject as a year-long, in-depth exploration. Delve meets once a week on a weekend day (currently Sunday) for the entire academic year (with holiday breaks), and pays accepted teachers to teach AP material to motivated and enthusiastic high school students. Delve classes can contain anywhere from 5 to 30 students. Delve teachers are paid at the end of the program.

Calendar

The complete schedule of dates for next year is here: 2013-14 Delve Calendar.

Syllabus

Teachers plan for 25 full Sundays of class (3.5-4 hours of class and half an hour of office hours each day). As a recommendation, you shouldn't be planning to only teach new material each class; repetition of the most crucial concepts and review are necessary and should take planned use of class time.

A note about why we require coteachers: Almost all Delve class are co-taught by two teachers; you cannot normally teach alone. Delve classes are a TON of work, and it's important to have a regular teacher there every week. Both co-teachers should plan to be at class every week. From experience, we've found that this is much more possible when Delve classes are co-taught.
