Your structured-literacy credential — whether Orton-Gillingham, LETRS, Wilson, IMSE, or a Master s in reading instruction — has opened the door to every K-3 reading position you ve pursued. In most of those roles, it also became your ceiling: you delivered someone else s program and reported outcomes. Here, that credential is your starting point.

If this difference resonates with you, read on. Alpha has redesigned traditional instruction. Students progress through academic content independently using AI-adaptive applications. There are no lectures, no textbooks, no pacing guides.

Your role occupies the space where human expertise remains essential. You create 20-minute small-group workshops based on real-time app data; sessions are brief by design, because precision is more effective than duration. You also lead motivation sessions that ensure 100% of your students reach their weekly app targets using Alpha s motivational framework (school currency, leaderboards, age-appropriate gamification). When you catch a student s miscue during a session, you identify the phonemic gap and have the next day s workshop revised before the end of the day.

That is the expectation. Families at these campuses have selected Alpha for results, not simply for enrollment. Parents receive weekly data on their child s reading progress and they engage actively. You will field specific questions about individual student advancement, and  they re doing fine  will not suffice. You will need to reference the running record, identify the phonemic gap, and describe your intervention.

That level of accountability should energize you, not burden you. Your initial months focus on establishing credibility. Workshops must be engaging, appropriately leveled, and demonstrably effective; student satisfaction and  love your Guide  survey scores (target 90%+) measure this directly. Once you establish yourself, your influence expands beyond your classroom: strategies that succeed with your students become models for other Alpha campuses to implement, and your diagnostic precision informs how reading is taught as Alpha scales.

The work you do here extends beyond your immediate environment. Prior to hiring, you will submit a short video in which you tell an engaging story for young children, and you will spend a full day on campus working directly with K-3 students. Low energy with children will disqualify you, regardless of your credentials. This is intentional. Apply today.
What You Will Be Doing

• Creating small-group K-3 reading workshops using live adaptive-app data, anchored in structured-literacy approaches (Orton-Gillingham, Wilson, LETRS, IMSE, or equivalent)
• Leading daily motivation sessions that drive 100% of your students to meet their weekly app goals through Alpha s motivational model (school currency, leaderboards, age-appropriate gamification)
• Analyzing AI-generated performance data (fluency curves, decoding accuracy, comprehension signals) to modify instruction mid-day, not only during planning time
• Conducting running records, fluency probes, and decoding assessments to generate gains that appear in the weekly campus data review
• Serving as the energetic, relatable adult that your K-3 students are excited to see each day
