The most valuable thing you can tell a student who achieved 99% is that they haven't met the standard. If that statement makes you uncomfortable, this role isn't for you. If it resonates, continue reading.
Alpha students complete their academic learning in two hours daily via self-directed AI applications. There are no teachers. No traditional instruction. No classroom oversight of subject matter. This model allows you to focus on work that genuinely alters outcomes: facilitating dynamic workshops on communication, concentration, and critique; driving students toward complete goal attainment using live data; and developing the Guides who serve alongside you.
A typical morning may involve a coaching conversation with a Guide, examining performance indicators and pinpointing cohort challenges. By late morning you're facilitating a student workshop, executing a structured activity on constructive feedback exchange. Afternoon hours transition to motivational work: engaging individual students, identifying their intrinsic drivers, and applying Alpha's incentive framework to re-engage a reluctant middle schooler. You manage your own cohort simultaneously, keeping yourself proficient in the competencies you're teaching others.
You've likely been misaligned in traditional education: excessively analytical, overly outcome-oriented, too comfortable questioning conventional approaches with students. Alpha may be your first genuine match. You'll develop other Guides immediately, and as you produce measurable results, your authority over campus program standards expands.
Uphold expectations. Transform outcomes. Submit your application.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating structured one-hour workshops on essential competencies (communication skills, concentration, feedback exchange) for elementary and middle school groups, executing Alpha's established framework rather than creating original content
- Conducting motivational interventions leveraging student data and Alpha's reward architecture (campus currency, performance rankings) to achieve complete goal attainment across all students
- Developing Guides in program consistency and standards maintenance, ensuring each coaching interaction yields specific performance improvements
- Managing your own student group while simultaneously building Guide capabilities
- Monitoring student engagement metrics, completion statistics, and Guide effectiveness indicators on a weekly basis to identify performance gaps before they escalate
What you will NOT be doing
- Providing direct instruction or academic tutoring to students. Academic learning occurs through independent app-based work without adult supervision.
- Creating original curriculum or developing lesson materials. The framework is established; your measure is execution quality, not creative innovation.
- Training Guides on instructional methods. Since Guides don't deliver traditional instruction, you're developing their capacity for engagement, motivation, and accountability.
- Accepting 99% performance when the standard is 100%. Maintaining rigorous expectations demonstrates your belief in their potential.
- Serving as the campus emotional anchor. Students receive genuine connection alongside honest assessment and meaningful accountability.
Key responsibilities
Execute Alpha's three core commitments for every student in your cohort: genuine enthusiasm for school, academic progress at double traditional classroom velocity, and development of practical competencies.
