Assistant Guide - Virtual   $40,000 USD/year

Description

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a hybrid role that requires physical presence in Arizona.

What if your job was to keep kids energized, supported, and excited to show up—without lesson plans, grading, or academic pressure?

This role exists for people who are great with kids and thrive in motion. In Unbound Academy’s fully virtual, tuition-free charter model, students move quickly through academics using AI tools, then spend the rest of their day in live, interactive workshops focused on life skills, collaboration, and confidence. Your job is to help those moments run smoothly and feel great for students.

You’ll be the connective tissue of the experience. You’ll manage transitions, support small groups, keep momentum high, and step in when a student needs encouragement or clarity. You won’t teach content—but without you, the experience doesn’t work.

If you’ve led kids in camps, after-school programs, sports, tutoring, or youth organizations—and you’re excited by a hybrid role that blends virtual energy with real-world collaboration—this is a chance to help school feel human again.

What you will be doing

  • Supporting live virtual workshops by managing breakout rooms, transitions, pacing, and group flow
  • Encouraging participation through chat, shout-outs, nudges, and personal check-ins with students
  • Helping students stay engaged, confident, and connected throughout the learning day
  • Assisting lead educators with behind-the-scenes logistics that keep sessions running smoothly
  • Acting as a consistent, trusted presence in student clubs and life-skills tracks

What you will NOT be doing

  • Teaching academic subjects or delivering instructional content
  • Creating lesson plans, grading work, or assessing academics
  • Designing curriculum or running workshops independently
  • Sitting back or observing passively—this is an active, high-energy role

Key responsibilities

Support vibrant, virtual learning experiences by ensuring students remain engaged, organized, and energized throughout each workshop session.

Candidate requirements

  • Available to start immediately or at the end of July (one of the two).
  • At least 3 years of experience mentoring, coaching, tutoring, or leading youth
  • Educational background within U.S., Canadian, or U.K. school systems (K–16); must have attended school in one of these countries
  • Strong communication skills and high comfort operating across digital platforms
  • Energizing, student-first presence with strong attention to detail and smooth transitions
  • Willing to work full-time, Monday–Friday, 8:00am–5:00pm U.S. Mountain Time (UTC-7)
  • Willing to work in a hybrid role in Arizona.
