Education$150k/yrFull-time
What You Will Be Doing
- Facilitating one-hour live workshops on life skills (public speaking, focus, giving and receiving feedback) for K-8 (elementary and middle school) cohorts, adhering to Alpha's playbook instead of creating content independently
- Conducting motivation sessions that leverage student analytics and Alpha's incentive model (school currency, leaderboards) to achieve 100% goal completion among students
- Developing Guides through coaching focused on program fidelity and standards enforcement, ensuring every session generates concrete action items for improvement
- Managing your own student cohort concurrently with your responsibility for Guide development
- Monitoring student satisfaction scores, goal completion rates, and Guide performance data on a weekly basis to identify underperformance early
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Lecturing or providing academic tutoring to students. Academic learning occurs via self-guided applications without direct adult instruction.
- Creating curriculum or developing original lesson plans. The playbook is established; execution fidelity, not creativity, is the standard.
- Coaching Guides on pedagogical methods. Since Guides do not teach, your coaching targets motivation, energy, and accountability.
- Allowing flexibility when a student achieves 99% rather than 100%. Maintaining the standard demonstrates your confidence in their capability.
- Serving as the campus empathy anchor. Students receive connection alongside honest feedback and meaningful consequences.
