About the role
This position is Guide-first: a dynamic, magnetic presence children genuinely enjoy learning with. Your structured-literacy background opens the door; your capacity to engage a K-2 classroom completely during a 20-minute workshop is what secures the hire.
Responsibilities
- Create and facilitate small-group K-2 reading workshops rooted in structured-literacy approaches (Orton-Gillingham, Wilson, LETRS, IMSE, or comparable), informed by live student data
- Facilitate daily motivation sessions designed to ensure 100% of students achieve their weekly adaptive-app targets, leveraging Alpha's motivational framework (school currency, leaderboards, developmentally appropriate gamification)
- Conduct and evaluate running records, fluency assessments, and decoding evaluations to monitor progress and refine subsequent instruction
- Analyze AI-generated performance data from Alpha's adaptive learning platforms to differentiate instruction dynamically, not solely during advance planning
- Serve as the engaging, energetic adult your K-2 students anticipate working with daily
Qualifications
- Structured-literacy certification (Orton-Gillingham, LETRS, Wilson Reading System, IMSE, CERI, Neuhaus, UFLI, or equivalent) OR Master's degree in reading instruction
- Bachelor's degree in any discipline, plus 2+ years of full-time K-2 structured reading instruction in a school or clinical environment, using systematic phonics or structured literacy
- Proven capacity to design independent reading lessons and articulate instructional methods and content, without dependence on a published program
- Availability to work in person full-time at one Alpha campus: Phoenix, AZ; Oklahoma City or Tulsa, OK; Fort Worth (Keller), Dallas, Plano, or The Woodlands, TX; or Park City (Salt Lake City), UT (relocation assistance available)
- Willingness to work with all K-2 students (not limited to struggling readers) and to incorporate AI and adaptive-learning technology into daily instruction
- Legal authorization to work in the U.S. without requiring visa sponsorship
