Do you believe that every child should be reading at or above grade level, yet find it frustrating to witness ineffective systems squander their promise?

Alpha School is demonstrating that literacy transformation does not depend on traditional 6-hour school schedules. Our 2-Hour Learning approach integrates AI-adaptive platforms with skilled teaching to drive accelerated reading progress. Your role: create and implement targeted workshops that produce quantifiable improvements in phonics, fluency, and comprehension for early elementary learners, then scale that model to campuses across the country.

This is not about administrative lesson planning. It is about instruction informed by data, partnership with technology teams, and constructing a reading system that serves thousands of students effectively.

Lead learning. Grow with purpose. Apply today.

  • Conducting adaptive reading workshops that build phonics, comprehension, and fluency capabilities
  • Creating personalized motivational experiences through gamified literacy achievement markers
  • Reviewing student performance data to adjust instructional methods and identify meaningful patterns
  • Working alongside engineers to assess and improve AI literacy platforms using real classroom feedback
  • Building scalable, AI-supported curriculum that helps early elementary students reach grade-level reading proficiency

Candidate requirements

  • Bachelor's degree plus advanced certification in reading instruction (such as Orton-Gillingham, Wilson, or comparable credential)
  • Minimum of 2 years delivering small-group reading interventions to students in early elementary grades
  • Capable of evaluating reading levels, organizing student groups, and creating differentiated lesson plans independent of prepackaged curricula
  • Comfortable using AI/adaptive learning platforms and adjusting to student engagement patterns within those systems
  • Authorized to work in the U.S. without requiring sponsorship
