Academic Coach, Alpha

The kindest thing you can do for a child who achieved 99% of their target is to make clear it's not complete. If that philosophy unsettles you, this position won't be a fit. If it energizes you—because you understand that upholding standards is the clearest way to communicate belief in a student's capability—continue reading.

Alpha operates differently from conventional schools. Students complete a full day's worth of academics in roughly two hours using adaptive technology. No classroom lectures. No traditional textbooks.

Your role centers on what technology cannot replicate: guiding Pre-K through 8th grade students in essential life competencies including public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback exchange. You ll spend half your time facilitating hands-on workshops guided by structured content and narrative techniques. The remaining half involves working with students individually or in small groups, analyzing their adaptive learning performance through Coachbot analytics, and driving them to reach 100% of weekly objectives.

Mastery is validated through Test2

Pass assessments, not participation metrics.

During your first year, you ll take ownership of a student cohort and become fluent in Alpha s operational model: life skills workshops, motivational coaching sessions, and mastery-validated assessments. Once you demonstrate consistent ability to guide every student to 100% goal completion while maintaining satisfaction ratings above 90%, advancement to Lead Guide becomes accessible—a role where you mentor fellow Guides while remaining engaged with students.

Those who excel in this position don t merely influence individual trajectories; they define campus-wide culture.

If you ve invested years coaching, counseling, or mentoring young people and wanted to eliminate traditional instruction in favor of genuine developmental support, this is that opportunity.

• Facilitating one-hour life competency workshops for Pre-K–8 students covering public speaking, focus, teamwork, and feedback skills (experiential and project-driven)
• Conducting daily individual and small-group coaching sessions to review student performance in adaptive learning platforms (via Coachbot analytics), establish targets, and drive 100% weekly goal achievement
• Overseeing and assessing Test2
  
  Pass evaluations to verify genuine mastery of each life skill, not simply attendance
• Adjusting your approach across diverse developmental stages, from Pre-K learners requiring high energy and physical activity to 8th graders needing direct conversation and clear accountability
• Cultivating authentic connections with each student so they trust your guidance through moments of resistance, distraction, and uncertainty

• Delivering lectures or conventional academic instruction (core subjects are learned through adaptive platforms, not direct teaching from you)
• Creating lesson plans or developing curriculum independently (Alpha supplies life skills frameworks; your responsibility is executing them with enthusiasm and narrative skill)
• Handling parent communications or administrative functions (Campus Leads manage these areas; your attention remains with students)
• Evaluating homework or coordinating standardized test preparation (these elements don t exist in Alpha s model)
• Operating independently (you re integrated into a campus team alongside Lead Guides, Campus Leads, and colleagues who exchange feedback and mutual accountability)

Guarantee that every student in your cohort develops enthusiasm for school, achieves proficiency in critical life skills, and completes 100% of their academic objectives through adaptive learning technology.

• Bachelor s degree in any discipline
• Minimum 3 years of direct experience with Pre-K–8 students (in teaching, coaching, counseling, or youth program management)
• Demonstrated experience motivating or coaching Pre-K–8 students toward academic, behavioral, or extracurricular objectives, with at least one concrete example you can articulate (including the objective, your approach, and the result)
• Regular use of generative AI…
