Instructors are... responsible for teaching an appropriately challenging and rigorous course to approximately 15-18 highly able students (12-14 in Young Students classes). Instructors' primary responsibilities are to plan and conduct their classes and labs within CTY's guidelines, to monitor the progress of each of their students, and to supervise their teaching assistants (residential sites) or program assistants (in conjunction with the dean of students at day sites). There is one instructional assistant for each instructor.

Supervision

Instructors are directly supervised by the academic dean and indirectly supervised by the site director and site program manager and assistant program manager. Each instructor is the direct supervisor of his or her instructional assistant.

Work Schedule and Physical Requirements

Instructors' work hours each day will be class and laboratory times, the late afternoon/evening class sessions (residential sites only), instructional staff meetings, and additional class planning and preparation time as needed. Depending upon the site, late afternoon/evening sessions are held Monday-Friday or Sunday-Thursday. Instructors do not have scheduled responsibilities on weekends with the exception of the opening weekend, some of intersession, and the closing weekend when all staff must remain on campus to assist with student arrival and departure. Instructors at day sites do not have scheduled responsibilities on weekends with the exception of student check-in day and some of intersession (for sites with two sessions). Instructors may not leave campus for the weekend before the end of class/lab on Friday, and they must check with their instructional assistants regarding preparation for the next class session before they do so. To prepare for the following week, instructors may have to take work with them or return to campus early. At residential sites, if evening class sessions are held on Sundays, instructors must return by the beginning of the class period.

Instructors are required to travel and navigate a college/school campus with or without accommodations. This may include traversing some long distances across campus. Some lifting and moving may be required.
