Student Success Coach, Alpha

Most educators spend their time battling institutional inertia. Drafting lesson plans no one will review. Enduring staff meetings that produce no real change. You realized years ago that wasn't the actual work. The actual work is the student sitting in front of you.

At Alpha, academic instruction is handled by software. Adaptive applications guide each student through coursework at an individualized pace. No traditional lectures, no homework assignments, no grading papers. This design frees you to focus on what genuinely transforms lives: facilitating life skill workshops where high schoolers develop public speaking ability, concentration, and feedback literacy, then providing one‑on‑one coaching to maintain their motivation and achievement of learning targets.

Half your time is spent facilitating group sessions. The other half is spent in direct conversations with individual students, analyzing their Coachbot data to identify precise learning obstacles and root causes.

Students complete a mastery‑based assessment following each workshop you lead. 90%+ should rate your performance highly. 100% should demonstrate progress in their learning apps. These aren't stretch goals; they define the performance standard. Maintaining high expectations is how you communicate your belief in their potential. Throughout this work, you'll develop expertise in designing workshops that engage teenage learners, mastering advanced educational software, and forming meaningful relationships with students and their families.

Our Brownsville campus is located adjacent to Space

X. The cutting edge of education meets the cutting edge of space technology, and you'll be the person fulfilling Alpha's central promise: students who are excited about school, learn at twice the conventional rate, and acquire genuinely valuable skills. If you've been searching for a school that operates according to your vision of how education should function, you've found it.
