The application deadline was October 1, 2009.
The video submission should be of you teaching the youth, ages 12 – 18. This video should be a substantial amount of time (recommended 20 – 40 minutes) and the teaching should be focused on the scriptures and gospel principles. We do not call our teachers “speakers” therefore; we expect student participation throughout the class. Simple principles such as Search, Analyze, and Apply should be employed. For more information on what kind of teaching we are looking for please see the “Online Resources” tab on the Teaching Tools page of our website.
If applicant is a full time Seminary & Institute (S&I) employee, an observation by the area director will replace video submission.
If applicant is or has been involved with the EFY program as a Counselor, Building Counselor, Health Counselor or Coordinator we encourage them to wait 4 years to apply for a teaching position.
These classes are for those that are interested in becoming seminary teachers or for those that want to gain more insight and skills used in any classroom setting. They are NOT required before you teach at EFY but will teach you the valuable skills that we look for in EFY teachers. We strongly recommend these classes.
We also encourage you to borrow this Teaching Emphasis DVD from the local institute, seminary, or S&I coordinator. This DVD will give you great insight into the kind of teaching that we are looking for.
