Ever wonder why traditional schools trap brilliant kids in lecture halls designed for average? 

At Alpha, we're building the opposite: student-led learning that moves at the speed of potential, not the pace of a textbook.

You won't be managing 30 desks or following district curricula. You'll be coaching small groups of motivated learners who want to move faster, dig deeper, and own their education. If you've succeeded outside traditional paths—through competition, athletics, entrepreneurship, or creative pursuits—and know how to channel drive into results, this role transforms your edge into their advantage.

No teaching certificate required. High performance required.
