Life Skills Coach   $100,000 USD/year

Description

  • Location: Dorado, Puerto Rico (on-site) | Compensation: $100,000/year | Full-time: 40 hours/week

If you prefer structured lesson plans and quiet compliance, this role is not for you. This position requires someone capable of leading 10–15 young students with high energy, maintaining rigorous standards, and coaching behavior, attention, and accountability in the moment. You will drive mastery—not merely participation.

Alpha is an AI-powered private school designed around a straightforward premise: students can achieve core academic competencies more quickly through adaptive learning technology, freeing time to develop the life skills that genuinely shape their trajectory. Your responsibility is to execute this model with a K–2 group. You will deliver interactive life skills workshops (public speaking, concentration, feedback exchange) and accelerate daily advancement within learning apps by leveraging Coachbot analytics, defined benchmarks, and reliable motivation frameworks.

This is a results-driven role. Success is measurable: 2x academic growth per semester, 90%+ student satisfaction, and demonstrated life-skill proficiency via Test2Pass. If you are prepared to coach with intensity, clarity, and purpose, we would like to speak with you.

What you will be doing

  • Facilitate one-hour, interactive life skills workshops through storytelling, tempo control, and hands-on practice to ensure students achieve Test2Pass standards
  • Leverage Coachbot analytics to identify obstacles early, establish daily and weekly benchmarks, and maintain momentum for every student across adaptive learning platforms
  • Conduct group check-ins that strengthen goal alignment, recognize achievements, and address challenges before they compromise performance
  • Deploy motivation frameworks (school currency, leaderboards, rewards) to produce observable shifts in focus, effort, and results
  • Step in immediately when students encounter difficulty or lose focus, coaching critical thinking and self-regulation on the spot

What you will NOT be doing

  • Delivering traditional academic instruction or one-on-one tutoring as the main teaching method
  • Monitoring students on devices without active engagement or accountability
  • Adjusting weekly performance targets downward to improve reporting metrics
  • Facilitating workshops where attendance is recorded but mastery is not verified

Key responsibilities

This role ensures that a K–2 cohort reliably achieves 2x academic progress per semester while sustaining 90%+ student satisfaction and confirmed life-skill competency.

Candidate requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in any field
  • Full fluency in English
  • At least intermediate Spanish proficiency to manage behavior, deliver instructions, and engage with families
  • 3+ years of experience working with children ages 4–8 in dynamic, high-interaction environments (classroom, camp, coaching, or afterschool programs)
  • Experience actively leading and engaging groups of 10–15+ young children (not limited to supervision)
  • Exposure to structured goal-setting or performance tracking with children
  • Demonstrated ability to receive performance feedback and implement it effectively
  • Willing to work in person in Dorado, Puerto Rico
  • Legal authorization to work in Puerto Rico without sponsorship

Nice to have

  • Experience designing or facilitating structured workshops that incorporate assessment or demonstration of competency
  • Experience applying data or learning analytics to inform and accelerate student outcomes (e.g., app dashboards, progress tracking)
  • Hands-on experience implementing incentive systems such as points, currency, badges, or leaderboards with youth populations
