Senior Associate, Alpha - $100,000/year USD
What You Will Be Doing
- Facilitating one-hour life skills workshops for K-8 students addressing public speaking, concentration, and feedback exchange
- Administering Test2Pass mastery assessments following each workshop to verify students have internalized the skill, not merely attended
- Conducting daily motivation sessions leveraging student profiles, interests, and Coachbot analytics to achieve 100% cohort completion of weekly app progression goals
- Employing storytelling, incentive structures (school currency, leaderboards), and individual relationships to overcome student resistance
- Monitoring cohort satisfaction ratings to maintain a 90%+ benchmark on student surveys
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Presenting lectures at a whiteboard. Students progress academically via self-paced AI-driven apps, not through direct instruction from you.
- Passive supervision. The environment involves students on computers; the role demands active engagement.
- Compromising standards when students object. Test2Pass benchmarks remain fixed, regardless of individual student circumstances during a given week.
- Creating curriculum independently. Lesson frameworks and workshop guides are supplied; your responsibility is executing them with presence and narrative skill that ensures genuine student comprehension.
- Handling parent communications, admissions processes, or campus operations. Those functions belong to separate roles.
