Description
- Location: Dorado, Puerto Rico (on-site) | Compensation: $100,000/year | Full-time: 40 hours/week
If you're looking for a scripted lesson plan and a calm classroom, this isn't your role. This position requires someone who can take charge of a room filled with 10–15 young children, maintain high energy, and enforce rigorous standards. You will coach behavior, attention, and accountability in the moment, and you will demand mastery, not mere participation.
Alpha is an AI-powered private school founded on a straightforward principle: children can achieve mastery of core academics more quickly through adaptive learning apps, freeing up time to develop the life skills that truly shape their future. Your responsibility is to make this model succeed for a K–3 cohort. As a Guide, you lead one cohort band — either K-1 (Kindergarten–1st) or 2-3 (2nd–3rd) — and adjust your energy, pacing, and workshops to fit that band. You will facilitate hands-on life skills workshops (public speaking, focus, giving and receiving feedback) and propel daily progress within the learning apps using Coachbot analytics, defined targets, and reliable motivation systems.
This is work that demands high accountability. The metrics are transparent: 2x academic progress each semester, 90%+ student satisfaction, and students who can demonstrate life-skill mastery through Test2Pass. If you're prepared to coach with energy, precision, and conviction, we want to hear from you.
What you will be doing
- Facilitate one-hour, hands-on life skills workshops using storytelling, pacing, and active practice so students can successfully pass Test2Pass
- Leverage Coachbot analytics to identify blockers early, establish daily and weekly targets, and ensure every student remains on pace in adaptive learning apps
- Conduct group check-ins that reinforce goals, acknowledge wins, and bring problems to light before they result in missed targets
- Deploy motivation systems (school currency, leaderboards, incentives) to generate visible behavior change in focus, persistence, and output
- Step in immediately when students are stuck or off-task, coaching problem-solving and self-correction in real time
What you will NOT be doing
- Delivering academic lectures or providing tutoring as the main form of instruction
- Passively overseeing kids on devices while assuming progress will occur
- Reducing weekly goals to improve the appearance of results
- Conducting workshops where students "participate" but fail to demonstrate mastery afterward
Key responsibilities
This role exists so a K–3 cohort reliably achieves 2x academic progress each semester while sustaining 90%+ student satisfaction and confirmed life-skill mastery.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any field
- Full fluency in English
- At least intermediate Spanish proficiency to manage behavior, provide directions, and communicate with families
- 3+ years of experience working with children ages 4–9 in high-energy, high-engagement settings (classroom, camp, coaching, or afterschool programs)
- Experience actively managing and engaging groups of 10–15+ young children (not supervision-only)
- 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 facilitating structured workshops that include an assessment or performance check
- Experience utilizing data or learning analytics to drive student progress (e.g., app dashboards, progress reports)
- Direct experience with incentive systems such as points, currency, badges, or leaderboards in a youth setting
