• On‑site role at an Alpha campus in Phoenix, AZ;

  Austin, TX;
  Fort Worth, TX;
  Houston, TX; or Park City (Salt Lake City), UT; relocation assistance available

This role is about motivation, not teaching. Alpha students in grades K‑3 complete their academic learning through AI‑driven apps in two daily hours. As a Guide, you work with one cohort band—K‑1 (Kindergarten through 1st grade) or 2‑3 (2nd through 3rd grade)—and adjust your approach, tempo, and workshop design to that band.

Half your time is spent facilitating one‑hour life‑skills workshops covering topics like public speaking, focus, and feedback. These workshops serve as frameworks, not rigid scripts—the strongest Guides adapt content to their cohort and create new sessions when gaps emerge. The other half involves sitting with students individually or in small groups, analyzing Coachbot data, and coaching each child to complete 100% of their weekly app targets.

For five‑ and six‑year‑olds, energy and play are the means by which you sustain attention long enough to teach.

A successful quarter means every student completes weekly app goals, passes the Test2

Pass for every life‑skills workshop, and at least 90% report they love you. Falling short on any of these three metrics means the job wasn’t done.

• Facilitating one‑hour life‑skills workshops for cohorts of 10‑15 K‑3 students, covering public speaking, focus, feedback, and other foundational skills
• Conducting daily 1:1 and small‑group coaching sessions to keep students on track for weekly app targets, using Coachbot analytics, Alpha’s reward systems (school currency, leaderboards), and the individual rapport you establish with each child
• Delivering the Test2
  
  Pass (Alpha’s mastery assessment) for each life skill and coaching students through retakes until they achieve mastery
• Engaging kindergarteners through songs, stories, physical activity, and humor, while maintaining real, measurable expectations for second and third graders
• Serving as the warm presence children are excited to see at morning drop‑off and the adult who will not allow them to settle for less than their best

• Delivering whiteboard lectures; apps provide the academic instruction, not you
• Designing curriculum from the ground up;
  Alpha supplies the framework and you execute it
• Passively monitoring students at computers; motivation in this context is active, individualized, and sustained
• Adjusting a weekly target downward so a child can meet it; when a student falls behind, the solution is support for the student, not modification of the goal
• Assigning grades to homework, running test‑prep sessions, or handling parent outreach;
  Campus Leads manage family communication, and the other tasks don’t exist in this model

Make certain that every student in your K‑3 cohort achieves their weekly learning targets, demonstrates mastery of each life skill, and finishes the year reporting that they loved you.
