Guide K-3   $100,000 plus benefits Salaried position with W2 benefits 

Description

  • In person in Georgetown, Texas, 30 minutes from Austin, with relocation support provided
  • $100,000 a year, paid weekly, with day-one health, dental, and vision benefits
  • Full-time, 40 hours a week at one of the world's most innovative schools

You believe a gifted six-year-old can learn algebra, and that most schools are built to talk her out of trying. If that conviction makes you uncomfortable, this isn't your role. If it's the reason you got into education, keep reading.

At gt.school, children don't sit and absorb a lesson. They move through adaptive learning software that lets them learn five to ten times faster than a standard classroom allows. That frees you to do the work that actually changes a child: coaching them on life skills, motivating them to chase stretch goals, and holding a standard high enough that they rise to meet it. You are not the source of the academic content. You are the reason a seven-year-old wants to beat her own record.

Your day is built around small cohorts, not a class of thirty. You might run a one-hour workshop on focus or public speaking in the morning, then sit one-on-one in the afternoon with a student who is stuck. You will use real analytics to find the incentive that gets a reluctant kid moving again. Some days a child pushes back, and your job is to win them over without lowering the bar. Holding that bar is how you show a child you believe they can clear it.

Move a cohort well and the path opens. Lead Guides coach the rest of the team on motivation and standards. Campus Leads run an entire school. This role is where that climb starts.

Bring your energy and your standards. Apply today.

What you will be doing

  • Run one-hour life skill workshops for small cohorts of gifted five- to eight-year-olds, coaching focus, self-regulation, public speaking, and how to give and receive feedback
  • Lead one-on-one and small-group motivation sessions that push every student toward stretch goals in their adaptive learning apps
  • Review the life skills curriculum and lesson plans, then deliver them with storytelling and energy instead of a script
  • Organize and run Test2Pass mastery assessments, advancing only students who have genuinely mastered the skill
  • Read student profiles, interests, and Coachbot analytics to pick the incentive, like school currency or leaderboards, that motivates each child

What you will NOT be doing

  • Lecturing from the front of a classroom. The academic learning happens in the software, and you coach kids through it
  • Writing or pacing a fixed curriculum. The apps adapt to each child, so you never teach to the middle
  • Managing a room of thirty students. You work with small cohorts where every child is known by name
  • Babysitting kids on computers. Passively watching screens is the opposite of this job
  • Passing students who have not mastered the material to keep the weekly numbers looking good

Key responsibilities

Coach gifted K-3 students to learn far faster while building the confidence and life skills to love school.

Candidate requirements

  • Willing to work in person at the GT campus in Georgetown (Austin), Texas, with relocation support provided
  • A bachelor's degree in any field
  • At least 3 years working with groups of children ages four to nine in education, afterschool, coaching, or similar settings
  • A demonstrated record of academic excellence, such as National Merit Scholar, academic competition results, or early college admission
  • Legally authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship

Nice to have

  • Experience motivating or mentoring gifted or high-performing students
  • Experience with personalized or software-driven learning, such as adaptive apps or other edtech platforms
  • A background as a performer, coach, or camp leader: someone who has held a room of young kids through energy alone
