Youth Mentor, Alpha

On-site position in Springfield, MA (relocation assistance available)

$100,000 annual salary paid weekly. Health, dental, and vision coverage begins day one.

Can you spot a student who has reached 99% of their goal and refuse to let them settle? The most caring thing you can do for a young person at 99% is decline to call it finished. If that expectation feels uncomfortable, this position will not be a fit. If it energizes you because you understand that maintaining high standards is how you demonstrate belief in a student’s capability, continue reading.

Alpha operates differently from conventional schools. Students complete a full day’s worth of academics in approximately two hours using adaptive software. No traditional lectures. No printed textbooks.

Your role centers on what technology cannot replicate: developing life skills in Pre‑K through 8th grade students—skills like public speaking, sustained attention, and constructive feedback exchange. You will spend half your time facilitating hands‑on workshops using prepared playbooks and narrative techniques. The remaining half involves meeting with students individually or in small groups, examining their adaptive learning app performance through Coachbot analytics, and ensuring they reach 100% of their weekly objectives.

Mastery is demonstrated through Test2

Pass assessments, not participation metrics.

This position is selective. Your first year focuses on mastering the system: workshop delivery, motivation techniques, mastery verification, and demonstrating you can hold every student accountable to 100% goal completion. Succeed in this and advancement to Lead Guide becomes available. You must bring warmth, commanding presence, and unwavering standards. Submit your application now.

• Evaluating homework assignments or preparing students for standardized testing (these elements do not exist in this model)
• Operating independently without collaboration (you join a campus team including Lead Guides, Campus Leads, and colleagues who provide mutual feedback and accountability)
