What You Will Be Doing
- Facilitating one-hour life skill sessions focused on public speaking, sustained attention, teamwork, and feedback skills, adjusting your delivery and energy for Pre-K through 8th grade learners
- Conducting daily individual and small-group coaching conversations where you examine each student's adaptive learning app data (via Coachbot analytics), establish objectives, and ensure they achieve 100% of their weekly benchmarks
- Overseeing and scoring Test2Pass evaluations to verify genuine mastery of each life skill, rather than simple attendance
- Implementing focused interventions when a student's academic progress or engagement declines—identifying underlying issues and creating a path forward
- Cultivating authentic connections with every student so they develop sufficient trust to receive coaching during moments of resistance, distraction, and uncertainty
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Providing traditional academic lectures or direct subject instruction (students master core content through adaptive applications, not instructor-led lessons)
- Developing original lesson plans or designing curriculum (Alpha supplies structured life skills playbooks; your responsibility is executing them with compelling energy and narrative)
- Handling parent communication or administrative tasks (Campus Leads manage these areas; your focus remains on student development)
- Handling homework assignments or preparing students for standardized testing (these elements do not exist in this model)
- Operating independently without collaboration (you join a campus team including Lead Guides, Campus Leads, and colleagues who provide mutual feedback and accountability)
