Learning Coach, Alpha - $120,000/year USD
or drop it. So we can include a short p with "Job Code: LJ-5634-US-OrangeCo-LearningCoach.003" maybe under a generic "About the role" or at end. We must remove duplicated lines, boilerplate like "We look forward to meeting you!", "Hit the Apply button..." etc. Also remove "About Alpha Join the team building school around student growth..." that's substantive; keep. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like "students complete academic work in just two hours a day using adaptive learning technology." etc. We need to format as HTML fragment: only tags, no /, no markdown. We'll produce sections:
About the role
... intro quote and description ...
Responsibilities
- Lead engaging life-skills workshops that help K-3 students master communication, focus, feedback, and other durable skills through active participation rather than lectures.
- Coach students one-on-one and in small groups, using Coachbot analytics, proven motivation systems, and strong relationships to keep every child on track for ambitious weekly learning goals.
- Assess life-skill mastery through Alpha's Test2Pass framework, coaching students until they demonstrate real understanding—not just participation.
- Adapt your coaching style to the developmental needs of your cohort, whether that means songs, movement, and storytelling for younger learners or higher independence and accountability for older students.
- Build the kind of relationships where students feel supported enough to stretch beyond what they thought they could achieve.
What you won’t be doing:
- Delivering academic lessons from a whiteboard; students learn academics through adaptive software.
- Writing curriculum from scratch; you'll improve and personalize proven playbooks instead of inventing lessons.
- Watching students work silently on computers; your role is active coaching, motivation, and connection.
- Lowering expectations when students struggle; success comes from helping students rise to the goal, not moving the goal closer.
- Managing homework, grading papers, or handling routine parent communication.
Requirements
- Willing to work on-site at one of Alpha's campuses.
- Current openings are available in Palo Alto, Los Angeles (South Bay), Malibu, Orange County (Lake Forest), San Francisco, and Santa Monica, CA; Greenwich, CT; Miami and Palm Beach, FL; Chicago, IL; New York City, NY; and Seattle (Kirkland), WA. Relocation assistance is available.
- Bachelor's degree in any subject.
- At least 3 years of experience working directly with children ages 4-9 through teaching, coaching, tutoring, camps, youth programs, or similar environments.
- Experience leading group activities for young children, with a concrete example of the structure or routine you used and how you kept the group engaged.
- A track record of motivating young children to achieve challenging goals, with specific examples of your impact.
- A concrete example of changing your approach based on feedback and the result.
- Comfort using AI-powered learning while focusing your own energy on coaching, motivation, and life-skill development.
- The ability to balance warmth with unwavering expectations.
- Legal authorization to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in youth sports, children's theater, camp leadership, Montessori, progressive education, or high-engagement after-school programs.
- Personal experience achieving ambitious goals in academics, athletics, or your career.
- Outstanding storytelling or performance skills that naturally capture the attention of young children.
- Evidence of helping reluctant or shy children become confident, engaged participants.

We also need to include maybe a short p for Job Code. Could add under Pay or Benefits as a minor metadata. Let's add a p after Pay:Job Code: LJ-5634-US-OrangeCo-LearningCoach.003
Check for duplicated lines: we removed "What You Will Be Doing" heading; we turned into bullet list under Responsibilities. Also removed "What You Won’t Be Doing" heading; we made a note and bullet list. Also removed "Learning Coach Key Responsibilities" heading; we added bullet. Check for any placeholder like "commensurate with experience" - none. Check for any boilerplate removed: "We look forward to meeting you!", "Hit the Apply button if you found this interesting and want to learn more." removed. Also removed "Working with us This is a full-time, W2 employee position with immediate access to benefits (https://support.crossover.com/article/7581-w2-benefits-u-s-paychex-paid-only). All roles are year-long positions." We kept benefits and pay info but dropped the link and year-long positions? Actually year-long positions is substantive; maybe we should keep it. It says "All roles are year-long positions." That's substantive about contract length. Should we include? Could add under Benefits or Schedule? Might be better to add a bullet under Benefits: "Year-long positions." Or under Schedule? I'd add a bullet under Benefits: "Year-long positions." Also we dropped the link; that's fine. We also removed "Crossover Job Code: LJ-5634-US-OrangeCo-LearningCoach.003." we kept as short p. Check for any other duplicated lines: "This is a full-time, on-site role at one of Alpha's campuses." we used in Schedule. Also earlier we had "This is a full-time, on-site role at one of Alpha's campuses." used. Check for "We recruit nationally, so job boards may display this opportunity in nearby cities that do not have a campus." That's substantive about location; we included location list but not that sentence. Should we keep? It's about job boards displaying in nearby cities; maybe not essential but it's substantive. Could add a sentence under Requirements about location: "We recruit nationally, so job boards may display this opportunity in nearby cities that do not have a campus." Could add as a p under Requirements after location list. But we already have location list; we could incorporate that sentence. Let's add a p after the location list bullet: maybe incorporate into that bullet: "Current openings are available in ...; we recruit nationally, so job boards may display this opportunity in nearby cities that do not have a campus." That keeps info. Also "If you're interested in another Alpha campus, apply anyway and tell us your preferred location—we'll consider you for the appropriate opening." That's also substantive about applying; but it's like application instruction? It's encouraging to apply; maybe considered application instruction? The instruction says remove application instructions. This is more like a note about applying; could be considered application instruction. Safer to drop. Also "If you've inspired kids as a teacher, coach, camp counselor, youth leader, or performer, you'll find a very different kind of classroom waiting for you here." That's substantive about who would fit; could be included in About the role or
