Waypoint Academy has replaced traditional classroom lectures with adventure-driven life skills training and AI-powered personalized academics. Students don't remain seated while you present—they develop public speaking competencies on outdoor trails, cultivate leadership through collaborative challenges, and progress at twice the standard pace using adaptive technology.
This role is not conventional teaching. You will coach K-12 students to unlock their capabilities through outdoor workshops and motivational goal-setting sessions. Your focus will be leading nature-integrated activities that develop tangible skills—focus, communication, teamwork—rather than delivering fixed curriculum. High-performing individuals who envision a radically reimagined school environment excel in this position. You will witness students evolve from hesitant learners into self-assured achievers, with measurable and immediate results.
Dripping Springs delivers Hill Country scenery just 30 minutes from Austin's technology hub, live music venues, and culinary landscape. Over 300 sunny days annually, Barton Springs access, and year-round outdoor recreation.
