The most meaningful support you can offer a student who achieves 99% is to withhold calling it 100%. Not out of indifference — but because you know they can reach it, and lowering the standard is the true disservice. If that reasoning resonates, continue reading. If it feels overly strict, this position will challenge you.
Students at Alpha don't passively absorb lectures. They advance through adaptive applications at double the speed of conventional classrooms while simultaneously developing practical life competencies. Your responsibility is ensuring three core commitments are met for every student in your group: they develop a genuine love of learning, they progress at 2x velocity, and they acquire capabilities no traditional curriculum provides. You will also mentor the Guides who uphold these same commitments throughout your campus.
All decisions are grounded in evidence and all interactions are conducted in person. You'll divide your time between leading your own student group and developing the Guides under your leadership — with identical expectations for both: tangible advancement, without compromise. When a Guide's session underperforms, you don't file documentation; you observe directly, discuss immediately, and resolve it that same afternoon.
You'll witness reserved children present with poise to adults. You'll observe a student who once "despised school" request extra time. And you'll recognize that the standard you maintained is precisely what enabled their transformation, because upholding expectations is how you demonstrate belief in someone's capacity to exceed them.
You may be establishing a completely new campus from the ground up and shaping the foundational culture that will characterize the institution. As the campus grows, your role evolves from operational founder to developmental leader, cultivating the team that expands Alpha's approach throughout your territory.
If this opportunity appeals to you, submit your application now.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour interactive life skills and social-emotional learning (SEL) sessions with K-8 students covering subjects such as public speaking and concentration, adhering to Alpha's defined framework
- Conducting daily motivational check-ins that propel 100% of students toward their weekly application objectives using developmentally appropriate incentives including school currency and performance rankings
- Developing Guides through direct observation, specific feedback, and practical training so they execute sessions with equivalent energy and accuracy
- Analyzing Coachbot data and individual student records to determine who requires support, then providing that support directly
- Guiding your own assigned student cohort personally, demonstrating the coaching and engagement techniques you require from all Guides
What you will NOT be doing
- Creating lesson plans or building curriculum. Students advance via adaptive apps; your role is making the people supporting them exceptional.
- Delivering traditional classroom lectures. You're 80% facilitator and motivator, 20% content expert; if standing at a whiteboard was your goal, this isn't the right fit.
- Compromising standards due to external pressure from parents or administration. When a student reaches 99%, the response is "not yet" — and you'll have full organizational support to maintain that boundary.
- Working from an office reviewing administrative documents. The majority of your day involves direct engagement with students and Guides.
- Waiting extended periods for performance evaluation. Outcomes are visible in real-time through Coachbot and adjustments occur immediately.
Key responsibilities
Execute Alpha's 3 Promises throughout your student cohort and among the Guides you develop: every child loves school, advances at 2x speed, and develops authentic life skills.
