You have deep mastery of structured literacy—whether through Orton‑Gillingham, LETRS, Wilson, IMSE, or a Master's in reading instruction. You can listen to a child read, pinpoint the phonemic breakdown, and craft a targeted phonics intervention on the spot. That expertise is expected. It is not what sets you apart.
What sets you apart is this: six-year-olds genuinely enjoy being around you. At Alpha, you are a Guide before anything else—a dynamic, engaging presence students want to learn with. Your reading credentials open the door; your ability to captivate a small group of K-2 learners for 20 minutes is what earns you the role.
Alpha has reimagined traditional schooling. Students work through academic content independently using AI‑adaptive platforms—no lectures, no textbooks, no pacing calendars. You build small‑group reading workshops using live performance data and lead motivational sessions that push students toward their weekly app targets through school currency, leaderboards, and developmentally appropriate game mechanics.
Your early months center on earning trust and enthusiasm in the room. Workshops need to be engaging, appropriately leveled, and demonstrably effective. Student satisfaction metrics and "love your Guide" feedback measure that directly. As you establish credibility, your responsibilities expand: interpreting AI‑sourced data to refine instruction, tracking fluency and decoding progress, and contributing to Alpha's evolving K‑2 literacy model as the technology advances.
Before an offer is extended, you will submit a short video of yourself delivering an engaging story for young children and complete a full day on campus working directly with K‑2 students. Low energy with children—regardless of how strong your qualifications—will disqualify you. Submit your application today.
