- In-person locations: Beverly Hills, CA; Piedmont, CA; Greenwich, CT; Boca Raton, FL; Miami, FL; Boston, MA; Raleigh, NC; New York City, NY; Seattle, WA (relocation assistance available)

The most supportive action you can take for a student achieving 99% is to decline calling it 100%. Not out of indifference — but because you know they're capable of reaching that level, and compromising the standard represents the true failure. If this reasoning resonates, continue reading. If it feels unforgiving, this position will likely frustrate 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 role ensures three commitments are fulfilled for every child in your cohort: genuine enthusiasm for school, accelerated learning at 2x pace, and acquisition of skills beyond any textbook. You'll also develop the Guides who deliver these same outcomes throughout your campus.
Data informs every choice, and interaction happens face-to-face daily. Your time divides between your own student cohort and the Guides under your leadership — with identical standards applied to both: documented progress, without exception. When a Guide's session underperforms, you don't draft documentation; you observe, discuss, and resolve it that same afternoon.
You'll witness reserved children present with confidence to adults. You'll observe a student who once "despised school" requesting to remain after hours. And you'll recognize that the standard you maintained is precisely what enabled their transformation, because upholding expectations demonstrates your belief in their capacity to exceed them.
You may be establishing a new campus from the ground up and defining the foundational culture that will shape the school. As the campus develops, your role evolves from operational founder to coaching leader, cultivating the team that expands Alpha's approach across your territory.
If this appeals to you, submit your application now.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour live workshops in life skills and social-emotional learning (SEL) for K-8 students covering subjects such as public speaking and concentration, adhering to Alpha's defined playbook
- Conducting daily motivation sessions designed to propel 100% of students toward weekly app objectives using developmentally appropriate incentives including school currency and leaderboards
- Developing Guides through direct observation, precise feedback, and practical coaching so they execute workshops with equivalent energy and accuracy to your own delivery
- Analyzing Coachbot data and student profiles to pinpoint individuals requiring intervention, then providing that intervention directly
- Directly mentoring your assigned student cohort, demonstrating the coaching and motivation techniques you require from every Guide
What you will NOT be doing
- Creating lesson plans or developing curriculum. Students progress through adaptive apps; your responsibility is elevating the people surrounding them.
- Delivering traditional classroom lectures. Your role is 80% performance, 20% content expertise; if standing at a whiteboard appeals to you, look elsewhere.
- 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 boundary.
- Working from an office reviewing administrative documents. The majority of your time is spent directly with students and Guides.
- Waiting extended periods for performance feedback. Results appear live in Coachbot and adjustments occur the same day.
Key responsibilities
Fulfill Alpha's 3 Promises for your cohort and the Guides under your leadership: every child develops a love for school, learns at 2x velocity, and acquires tangible life skills.
