The most meaningful support you can offer a student who achieves 99% is to withhold calling it 100%. Not out of apathy — but because you know they can reach it, and lowering expectations is the true disservice. If this reasoning resonates, continue reading. If it feels unnecessarily strict, this position will likely disappoint you.
Students at Alpha don't endure traditional lectures. They advance through adaptive applications at double the speed of conventional classrooms while developing practical life competencies. Your responsibility is ensuring three commitments are fulfilled for each student in your group: they enjoy school, they accelerate learning by 2x, and they gain capabilities no traditional curriculum offers. You also develop the Guides who uphold these same commitments throughout your campus.
Every choice is data-informed and every interaction is in-person. Your time divides between your own student group and the Guides under your leadership — and the expectation remains consistent: quantifiable advancement, without compromise. When a Guide's session underperforms, you don't draft documentation; you observe, discuss, and resolve it immediately.
You'll witness reserved students presenting with confidence to adults. You'll observe a learner who previously "despised school" requesting to remain after hours. And you'll recognize that the standard you maintained is precisely what enabled their growth, because upholding expectations demonstrates your belief in their capability.
You may be establishing a new campus from the ground up and setting the foundational culture that will shape the institution. As the campus develops, your emphasis transitions from operational launch mode to coaching leadership, cultivating the team that extends Alpha's methodology across your area.

What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour interactive life skills and social-emotional learning (SEL) sessions with K-8 students covering topics such as public speaking and focus, adhering to Alpha's structured framework
- Conducting daily motivational sessions that achieve 100% student completion of weekly app objectives using age-appropriate mechanisms including school currency and leaderboards
- Developing Guides through direct observation, precise feedback, and practical training so they execute sessions with equivalent energy and accuracy
- Analyzing Coachbot data and student records to determine intervention needs, then personally providing those interventions
- Directly mentoring your assigned student cohort, demonstrating the coaching and motivational approaches you require from all Guides
What you will NOT be doing
- Creating lesson plans or developing curriculum. Students progress through adaptive apps; your focus is elevating the people who support them.
- Delivering traditional classroom lectures. You operate as 80% motivator, 20% content expert; if you prefer working at a whiteboard, this role isn't suitable.
- Compromising standards due to pressure from parents or administration. When a student achieves 99%, the response is "not yet" — and you'll receive full support to maintain that position.
- Spending your day in an office managing administrative tasks. The majority of your time involves direct interaction with students and Guides.
- Waiting extended periods for performance evaluation. Data is available live in Coachbot and adjustments occur immediately.
Key responsibilities
Ensure Alpha's 3 Promises are realized across your student cohort and the Guides under your leadership: every student enjoys school, learns at 2x speed, and develops authentic life skills.
