Coach, Alpha - $100,000/year USD

What You Will Be Doing

• Running one-hour life skills workshops with K-8 students covering public speaking, focus, and giving and receiving feedback
• Delivering Test2Pass mastery assessments after each workshop to confirm students have genuinely learned the skill, not just sat through it
• Running daily motivation sessions using student profiles, interests, and Coachbot analytics to get 100% of your cohort hitting their weekly app advancement goals
• Applying storytelling, incentives (school currency, leaderboards), and personal connection to push past student resistance
• Tracking cohort satisfaction scores toward a 90%+ target on student surveys

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Delivering lectures from a board. Students advance academically through self-guided AI-powered apps, not through instruction from you.
• Babysitting. Kids on computers is the setting; active engagement is the job.
• Lowering the bar when students push back. Test2Pass standards hold, regardless of whether a student is having a hard week.
• Inventing curriculum from scratch. Lesson plans and workshop playbooks are provided; your job is to deliver them with the presence and storytelling skill that makes students actually absorb the material.
• Managing parents, running admissions, or overseeing campus operations. That's a different role.
