You are not a classroom instructor. You are a motivator.

The most caring thing you can do for a student who reached 99% of their target is to refuse to call it complete. If that principle makes you uneasy, this role is not for you. If it energizes you because holding the standard is how you demonstrate belief in a student's capacity, read on.

At Alpha, academic learning happens through AI-driven applications. No lectures. No textbooks. Half your time is spent facilitating one-hour life-skills sessions on topics like public speaking, focus, and constructive feedback. The other half, you work with students individually or in small groups, analyze their progress via Coachbot data, and drive each one toward 100% completion of their weekly app targets. You will not be reading from a script—workshops provide a framework, but top performers in this role customize them and create new content when gaps emerge.

A successful quarter means every student in your cohort completes their weekly app objectives, passes the Test2

Pass for all life-skills modules, and 90%+ report that they love you. Fall short on any of those three metrics and you've missed the mark. In your first year you'll internalize the system; as you demonstrate your ability to maintain standards, you can advance to Lead Guide, where you mentor newer team members while continuing to work directly with students.

If you prefer traditional instruction, want pre-packaged curriculum, or see warmth and rigor as conflicting, this role is not the right fit. If you have experience as a sports coach, camp leader, tutor who wouldn't let a student give up, or performer who could captivate a group of eight-year-olds, the final interview step is a full day on campus coaching actual Alpha students.

If that prospect excites you most, submit your application today.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Facilitating one-hour life-skills sessions for K-8 groups covering public speaking, focus, feedback, and other transferable competencies, customizing the framework and creating new modules when you identify needs
  • Conducting daily individual and small-group coaching sessions that drive every student to 100% of their weekly app targets, leveraging Coachbot data, Alpha's motivation systems (school currency, leaderboards), and your rapport with each student to overcome resistance
  • Delivering the Test2

    Pass (Alpha's mastery-based evaluation) for each life skill, and working with students who don't achieve mastery until they do
  • Adjusting your approach across a broad age spectrum, from kindergarteners who thrive on energy and activity to 8th graders who respond to candor and accountability
  • Serving as the adult who maintains high expectations and the adult students trust; warmth creates the foundation for challenge, and challenge communicates your confidence in their potential
What You Won’t Be Doing

  • Teaching content at a whiteboard; academic instruction is embedded in the apps, not delivered by you
  • Creating curriculum from the ground up; you animate an established framework with energy and narrative
  • Passively monitoring students on devices; motivation in this role is active, individualized, and persistent
  • Reducing a weekly target to help a student reach it; when a student is behind, the solution is supporting the student, not adjusting the goal
  • Marking assignments, running standardized test preparation, or handling parent outreach;
