Career Coach

$100,000 USD/year   ($50 USD/hour)

• Facilitating one-hour life-skills sessions for K-8 groups on subjects including public speaking, concentration, feedback culture, and other enduring competencies—customizing the framework and creating new modules when you identify needs
• Conducting daily individual and small-group motivation meetings that drive every student toward 100% completion of weekly app targets, leveraging Coachbot data, Alpha's reward structures (school currency, performance rankings), and your rapport with each child to overcome reluctance
• Delivering the Test2Pass (Alpha's mastery assessment) for each life skill and coaching students through retakes until mastery is achieved
• Adjusting your approach across developmental stages—from kindergarteners requiring dynamic energy and physical activity to eighth graders needing direct conversation and personal accountability
• Serving as both the authority who maintains standards and the trusted adult students seek out; connection creates permission to challenge, and challenging demonstrates confidence in their potential

• Delivering instruction via whiteboard presentations; academic content is embedded in the applications, not your teaching
• Developing curriculum independently; your role is to animate an established framework with presence and narrative skill
• Passively monitoring students at workstations; motivation in this model is engaged, individualized, and persistent
• Reducing weekly targets to enable student success; when a child falls behind, the solution is supporting the child, not adjusting the goal
• Evaluating assignments, conducting standardized exam preparation, or handling parent outreach; Campus Leads manage family communication, and the other tasks do not exist in our model

Guarantee that every student in your K-8 group completes weekly learning objectives, achieves mastery in each life skill, and finishes the year reporting positive regard for your coaching.

• Available to work on-site at an Alpha campus in Scottsdale (Phoenix), AZ; Denver, CO; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Brownsville, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX (Central, South, or The Woodlands); Park City, UT - relocation assistance available
• Bachelor's degree in any discipline
• Minimum 3 years of direct experience working with K-8 students (including classroom instruction, athletic coaching, tutoring, camp counseling, or youth program management)
• A concrete example you can articulate of guiding a K-8 student to a challenging objective: the specific goal, your actions, and the result
• Comfort with AI managing academic instruction while you concentrate on motivation and life-skills development
• Regular use of generative AI platforms (such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude)
• Authorization to work in the United States without requiring visa sponsorship (or in Canada for the Toronto location)

• Background in youth sports coaching, competitive debate, camp direction, theater, or extracurricular programs where you held direct accountability for motivating children toward defined outcomes
• Demonstrated record of personal excellence (academic, athletic, or career-based) that makes holding others to demanding standards natural rather than performative
• Communication and presentation skills sufficient to maintain engagement with a group of 12-year-olds for an hour without volume escalation
• Proven ability to convert unmotivated or oppositional students into engaged contributors
