Description

- $100,000 annual salary, distributed weekly. Full health, dental, and vision coverage begins day one
- Considering relocation? Support is provided
The most meaningful support you can offer a student who reaches 99% of their target is to refuse to accept it as complete. If this standard unsettles you, this position is not the right fit. If it energizes you because you understand that maintaining high expectations demonstrates your belief in a student's potential, continue reading.
Alpha is not a conventional school. Students complete a full day's worth of academics in approximately two hours using adaptive software. No lectures. No textbooks. Your role focuses on what technology cannot replicate: guiding students through life skills such as public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback exchange. You will facilitate interactive workshops, drive students to achieve their learning targets, and develop relationships that transform a reserved 4th grader into someone who confidently presents before a room of adults.
This position grows with you. During your first year, you will manage a small student cohort and internalize Alpha's methodology: life skill workshops, motivation sessions, mastery-based assessments. Once you demonstrate the ability to hold every student accountable to 100% of their targets while maintaining satisfaction scores above 90%, advancement to Lead Guide becomes available, where you will mentor a team while remaining engaged with students directly. High performers in this role do more than change individual trajectories; they influence how an entire campus functions.
Traditional schools do not offer this opportunity. If you have been coaching, counseling, or mentoring young people and wish you could eliminate instructional teaching to focus on their development, this is the right transition.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour life skill workshops for K-12 students covering topics such as public speaking, focus, time management, and feedback exchange (interactive and project-driven, never lecture-based)
- Conducting daily motivation sessions in which you engage individual students, assess their progress through adaptive learning apps (utilizing Coachbot analytics), and challenge them to achieve 100% of their weekly targets
- Organizing and administering mastery-based assessments (Test2Pass) to verify students have genuinely acquired each skill, not merely attended
- Establishing authentic relationships with each student so they trust your guidance through resistance, distraction, and uncertainty
- Monitoring student progress relative to satisfaction scores and goal completion metrics, modifying your methods when outcomes are insufficient
What you will NOT be doing
- Delivering lectures in a classroom or providing traditional academic instruction (students complete core subjects through self-directed adaptive apps, not through your teaching)
- Creating lesson plans from the ground up (Alpha supplies a life skills curriculum and playbooks; your responsibility is to execute them with enthusiasm and narrative skill)
- Handling parent communications or school administration tasks (Campus Leads manage those areas; you remain concentrated on your students)
- Evaluating homework or overseeing standardized test preparation (neither exists in this environment)
- Operating independently (you are part of a campus team including Lead Guides, Campus Leads, and colleagues who exchange feedback and maintain mutual accountability)
Key responsibilities
Guarantee that every student in your cohort enjoys school, develops critical life skills, and achieves 100% of their academic targets through adaptive learning software.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any field
- 3+ years of direct experience working with K-8 students (teaching, coaching, counseling, or youth program leadership)
- Willingness to work on-site at an Alpha campus in Denver, CO; Atlanta, GA; Nashville, TN; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX; or Park City, UT (relocation support provided)
- Ability to participate in a paid training program at Alpha's Austin, TX campus
- Legal authorization to work in the United States without visa sponsorship
Nice to have
- Background in youth development: athletic coaching, camp leadership, or youth program roles where you held direct responsibility for motivating children to reach specific targets
- History of high personal achievement (academic distinctions, competitive athletics, or leadership positions requiring sustained excellence)
- Innate storytelling capability: you can capture and maintain the attention of a room of 12-year-olds for an hour without escalating your voice
- Experience motivating disengaged or resistant students and converting them into engaged participants
