Alpha is transforming the traditional school experience. Our students don't endure passive lectures—they race through adaptive digital platforms, absorb material at twice the standard pace, and develop practical life competencies as they go. Your role is to ensure those "3 Promises" become reality for every learner in your cohort and to develop our Guides so they deliver the same results.
You'll combine expert-level coaching ability with dynamic presentation skills, transforming workshops, metric-focused motivational sessions, and precise feedback into powerful development experiences. If you've broken performance records, elevated struggling performers to excellence, or consistently reject mediocrity, we want you creating excellence alongside us.
Why Alpha?
- Competitive compensation for major metros – enhanced pay structure reflecting the living costs in these urban markets
- Robust benefits package – full health benefits and ample paid time off
- Relocation support – offered to exceptional candidates
- Development-focused environment – access to coaching, professional development, and advancement opportunities
What you will be doing
- Developing and coaching Guides to deliver Alpha's workshops at a world-class standard
- Building comprehensive Guide Playbooks that outline facilitation best practices, rewarding activity design, and challenge resolution
- Delivering consistent, practical feedback to Guides that elevates student participation and outcomes
- Personally coaching a small student cohort, demonstrating advanced motivation and mentorship techniques
What you will NOT be doing
- Creating lesson plans – your Guides support students learning via adaptive technology; your priority is equipping them to be outstanding motivators
- Compromising standards – when our benchmark is 100% mastery, you uphold that expectation
- Running dull training sessions – you'll develop Guides through dynamic, energizing, experiential learning
Key responsibilities
Develop Guides and students to ensure every learner in your cohort loves school, learns at 2× speed, and masters life skills. No exceptions.
