The kindest thing you can do for a student who reached 99% of their target is to not accept it as complete. If that principle feels uncomfortable, this position may not suit you. If it energizes you—because you understand that maintaining high standards demonstrates your belief in a student's capacity—continue reading.
Alpha operates differently from conventional schools. Students complete a full day's worth of academics in roughly two hours using adaptive software. No traditional lectures. No physical textbooks. Your role centers on what technology cannot replicate: guiding young people through essential life skills such as public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback exchange. You'll facilitate interactive workshops, inspire students to achieve their learning targets, and develop the types of connections that enable a reserved fourth grader to present with confidence before an audience of adults.
This position grows with you. During your first year, you'll guide a small student cohort and become proficient in Alpha's methodology: life skill workshops, motivation coaching, mastery-based evaluation. Once you demonstrate the ability to hold every student accountable to 100% goal completion while maintaining satisfaction ratings above 90%, advancement to Lead Guide becomes possible—a role where you'll mentor a team while remaining engaged directly with students. The most effective people in this role don't simply transform individual trajectories; they influence how an entire campus functions.
Traditional schools don't offer this opportunity. If you've been coaching, counseling, or mentoring young people and wanted to move beyond instructional teaching to focus on actual growth, this role represents that shift.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour life skill workshops for K-12 students covering subjects such as public speaking, concentration, time management, and feedback exchange (interactive and project-oriented, never lecture-based)
- Conducting daily motivation coaching sessions where you engage with individual students, examine their adaptive learning app progress (utilizing Coachbot analytics), and encourage them to achieve 100% of their weekly targets
- Organizing and conducting mastery-based assessments (Test2Pass) to verify students have genuinely acquired each skill, not merely attended sessions
- Developing authentic connections with each student to establish the trust necessary for coaching through resistance, distraction, and uncertainty
- Monitoring student advancement against satisfaction metrics and goal achievement data, modifying your methods when outcomes don't meet expectations
What you will NOT be doing
- Presenting lectures to a classroom or providing conventional academic instruction (students acquire 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 administrative duties (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're 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 discipline
- 3+ years of direct experience working with K-8 students (in teaching, coaching, counseling, or youth program leadership capacities)
- Commitment to working on-site at an Alpha campus located in Denver, CO; Atlanta, GA; Nashville, TN; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX; or Park City, UT (relocation assistance available)
- Availability to participate in a paid training program at Alpha's Austin, TX campus
- Legal authorization for employment in the United States without requiring visa sponsorship
Nice to have
- Background in youth development: athletic coaching, camp leadership, or youth programming where you held direct accountability for motivating children toward specific objectives
- Demonstrated history of personal achievement (academic distinctions, competitive athletics, or leadership positions requiring sustained excellence)
- Innate storytelling capability: you can maintain the attention of a room filled with 12-year-olds for an hour without elevating your voice
- Proven ability motivating disengaged or reluctant students and converting them into engaged participants
