Senior Learning Manager, Alpha

What You Will Be Doing

• Facilitating one-hour interactive workshops on life skills and social-emotional learning (SEL) with K-8 students, covering subjects such as public speaking and concentration, using Alpha's established framework
• Conducting daily motivation sessions designed to ensure 100% of students achieve their weekly application-based goals through age-appropriate motivators including school currency systems and leaderboards
• Developing Guides via direct observation, specific feedback, and practical training so they execute workshops with equivalent energy and precision to your own
• Analyzing Coachbot data and individual student records to pinpoint those requiring additional support, then providing that intervention directly
• Personally mentoring your designated cohort of students, demonstrating the coaching and motivational approaches you require from all Guides

• Creating lesson plans or developing curriculum. Students progress through adaptive software; your focus is elevating the people who support them.
• Delivering traditional classroom lectures. You're 80% facilitator and entertainer, 20% content expert; if standing at a whiteboard appeals to you, look elsewhere.
• Compromising standards due to external pressure from parents or administrators. When a student achieves 99%, the response is "not yet" — and you'll have institutional support to maintain that standard.
• Spending your time in an office managing administrative tasks. The majority of your day involves direct interaction with students and Guides.
• Waiting extended periods for performance reviews. Outcomes are visible in real time via Coachbot, and adjustments occur immediately.

Fulfill Alpha's 3 Promises for your cohort and the Guides under your leadership: every student loves school, progresses at 2x speed, and develops authentic life skills.
