Student Success Coach, Alpha - $150,000​/year USD

You've accomplished difficult things. You've operated within genuine standards. You understand the distinction between effort and results. If you're looking to apply that discipline in a setting where it shifts a young person's path, this position was designed for you.

Alpha School leverages AI-driven 1:1 instruction, enabling students to complete core academics in roughly two hours daily. The remaining time is dedicated to life skills, interest-based projects, and authentic development. At our most demanding campuses, students require more than oversight. They need a credible mentor capable of assessing dynamics, establishing expectations, and guiding them through resistance, lack of focus, and uncertainty.

This is not conventional classroom teaching. You will not deliver lectures, assign grades, or develop lesson plans. You will coach. You will facilitate demanding life-skills sessions. You will analyze data to identify what limits a student's progress, then guide with precision and empathy until they execute.

If you possess an elite credential and a history of elevating others' performance, we're interested in speaking with you. Apply to contribute to a campus environment where students arrive prepared, develop tangible skills, and surpass challenging objectives.

• Conduct classes, present lectures, or provide tutoring in a conventional instructor capacity
