Description
- Location: Dorado, Puerto Rico (on-site) | Compensation: $100,000/year | Full-time: 40 hours/week
If your idea of teaching is a predictable schedule and a pre-written curriculum, this isn't the right fit. This position requires someone capable of leading a group of 10–15 young children, sustaining high energy throughout the day, and maintaining rigorous expectations. You'll be coaching behavior, attention, and accountability in the moment, and the standard is mastery—not just showing up.
Alpha is an AI-powered private school founded on one core principle: children can achieve core academic competencies more rapidly through adaptive learning technology, freeing time to develop the life skills that truly shape their trajectory. Your responsibility is to execute this model with a K–3 cohort. As a Guide, you oversee one cohort band—either K-1 (Kindergarten–1st) or 2-3 (2nd–3rd)—and customize your approach, tempo, and instruction to fit that developmental stage. You'll facilitate hands-on life skills workshops (including public speaking, concentration, and feedback exchange) and monitor daily academic advancement through Coachbot analytics, defined benchmarks, and proven motivational frameworks.
This is a role built on accountability. Success is measurable: 2x academic growth per semester, 90%+ student satisfaction, and demonstrated life-skill proficiency validated by Test2Pass. If you're prepared to coach with intensity, clarity, and purpose, let's connect.
What you will be doing
- Facilitate one-hour, interactive life skills workshops that combine narrative, rhythm, and hands-on practice to prepare students for Test2Pass mastery
- Leverage Coachbot analytics to identify obstacles proactively, establish daily and weekly benchmarks, and ensure continuous progress across adaptive learning platforms
- Conduct group accountability sessions that reinforce objectives, acknowledge achievements, and flag challenges before they escalate into performance gaps
- Implement motivational frameworks (such as school currency, leaderboards, and reward structures) to generate measurable shifts in focus, perseverance, and productivity
- Step in immediately when students disengage or encounter difficulty, guiding them toward independent problem-solving and real-time self-correction
What you will NOT be doing
- Teaching through traditional academic lectures or serving as the main source of content delivery
- Acting as a passive monitor while students use devices without active coaching
- Adjusting weekly performance targets downward to meet reporting expectations
- Facilitating workshops where attendance is recorded but competency cannot be demonstrated post-session
Key responsibilities
This role ensures that a K–3 cohort reliably achieves 2x academic growth per semester while sustaining 90%+ student satisfaction and demonstrable life-skill competency.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any field
- Full fluency in English
- At least intermediate Spanish proficiency to direct behavior, provide instructions, and engage with families
- 3+ years of experience working with children ages 4–9 in dynamic, high-engagement environments (classroom, camp, coaching, or afterschool programs)
- Experience actively leading and engaging groups of 10–15+ young children (beyond supervision)
- Exposure to structured goal-setting or progress targets with children
- Track record of receiving performance feedback and applying it
- Willing to work in person in Dorado, Puerto Rico
- Legal authorization to work in Puerto Rico without sponsorship
Nice to have
- Experience designing or delivering structured workshops that incorporate assessment or performance validation
- Experience interpreting data or learning analytics to influence student outcomes (e.g., app dashboards, progress reports)
- Direct experience implementing incentive systems such as points, currency, badges, or leaderboards with youth populations
