You are proficient in structured literacy:
Orton-Gillingham, LETRS, Wilson, IMSE, or hold a Master's in reading instruction. You can detect a student's error, pinpoint the phonemic breakdown, and build a phonics lesson independently of any scripted curriculum. That's baseline. It's not what sets you apart.

What sets you apart is that six-year-olds are excited when you enter the room. At Alpha, this position is first and foremost a Guide: a dynamic, magnetic presence children enjoy learning with. Your reading credentials open the door; your capacity to captivate a K-2 group for a 20-minute workshop is what earns you the role.

Alpha has dismantled conventional teaching. Students work through academic content individually on AI-adaptive platforms, with no lectures, textbooks, or predetermined pacing. You create small-group reading workshops using live performance data and lead motivational sessions that inspire students to reach their weekly app targets through school currency, leaderboards, and developmentally appropriate gamification.

Your initial months focus on building rapport. Workshops need to be engaging, differentiated, and demonstrably impactful. Student satisfaction and "love your Guide" feedback measure this explicitly. As you establish success, your responsibilities expand: analyzing AI-generated data to refine instruction, documenting fluency and decoding progress, and influencing Alpha's K-2 reading strategy as adaptive technology advances.

Before an offer is extended, you'll submit a short video sharing a captivating story for young children and complete a full day on campus working directly with K-2 students. Low energy with children is disqualifying, regardless of credential strength.

• Creating and facilitating small-group K-2 reading workshops rooted in structured-literacy principles (Orton-Gillingham, Wilson, LETRS, IMSE, or comparable), informed by actual student data
• Conducting daily motivational sessions that ensure 100% of your students achieve their weekly adaptive-app targets, leveraging Alpha's motivational framework (school currency, leaderboards, developmentally appropriate gamification)
• Administering and evaluating running records, fluency assessments, and decoding measures to monitor progress and modify upcoming instruction
• Analyzing AI-generated performance data from Alpha's adaptive learning platforms to individualize instruction dynamically, not only during advance planning
• Serving as the approachable, enthusiastic adult your K-2 students are excited to see daily

• Implementing a published reading curriculum, scripted program, or district pacing calendar; you create your own lessons based on student data
• Delivering whole-class lectures; all teaching occurs in small, targeted groups while students engage with academic subjects through adaptive apps
• Serving as a reading consultant, teacher coach, or district-level specialist; you work in the classroom with children every day
• Managing a conventional classroom schedule — subject-by-subject lectures, homework correction, test preparation; your time is allocated to workshops, motivational sessions, and data-informed small groups instead
• Evaluating homework or issuing report cards; student advancement is tracked through app data and your running records
