We are in need of one 7th Grade and one 10th Grade Catechists. You only teach six times!
That's two hours each, which is the most classroom sessions I've seen scheduled. Some years it's turned out to be as few as three.
Our new pastor's next "town hall" meeting is on the school and religious education. I might ask why we should be confident that six to twelve hours per year from whoever responds to the annual last minute call for catechists constitutes "religious education".
Update:

I'll teach them. But I will not join your parish if that's okay.
