Alpha is transforming the school experience. Students here don't endure traditional lectures—they accelerate through adaptive technology, absorb material at double speed, and develop practical life competencies. Your role is to ensure our "3 Promises" become reality for every learner in your cohort while coaching Guides to deliver the same outcomes.
You'll combine expert coaching ability with dynamic presentation skills, transforming professional development sessions, data-focused rallies, and precise feedback into powerful learning experiences. If you've broken performance records, converted struggling performers into high achievers, or consistently reject mediocrity, we want you creating excellence alongside us.
What makes Alpha different?
- Competitive compensation for high-cost markets – elevated pay reflecting the living costs in these metropolitan locations
- Strong benefits package & paid time off – full health benefits and ample PTO
- Relocation support – offered to exceptional candidates
- Development-focused environment – access to coaching, professional training, and advancement opportunities
What you will be doing
- Developing and training Guides to deliver Alpha's workshops at a world-class level
- Building Guide Playbooks that document facilitation best practices, designing engaging learning experiences, and addressing common obstacles
- Delivering consistent, practical feedback to Guides that elevates student participation and results
- Directly coaching a small student cohort, demonstrating advanced motivational and instructional techniques
What you will NOT be doing
- Developing lesson plans – Guides support student learning via adaptive technology; you concentrate on training them to excel as motivators
- Compromising expectations – when our benchmark is 100%, your responsibility is upholding that standard
- Running dull training sessions – you'll develop Guides through dynamic, energetic, interactive coaching
Key responsibilities
Train Guides and support students to ensure every learner in your cohort experiences joy in school, progresses at 2× speed, and develops essential life skills. No exceptions.
