Camp Coordinator $100,000 USD/year
Description
- $100,000 annual W2 salary paid weekly, with health, dental, and vision coverage beginning on day one
- On-site position at an Alpha K-8 campus located in Denver, CO; Atlanta, GA; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Brownsville, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston (Central, South, or The Woodlands), TX; Park City, UT (Salt Lake City region); or Toronto, Canada (relocation assistance available)
This is not a teaching role. It is a motivational role.
The most meaningful support you can provide to a student who achieves 99% of their target is to refuse to accept it as complete. If that expectation makes you uneasy, this position is not for you. If it energizes you because maintaining standards is your way of demonstrating belief in a student's potential, continue reading.
At Alpha, academic learning happens through AI-powered applications. There are no lectures or textbooks. Half of your day is spent facilitating one-hour life-skills workshops covering public speaking, focus, and constructive feedback. The other half involves working with students individually or in small groups, analyzing their progress via Coachbot analytics, and ensuring each one reaches 100% of their weekly app targets. You will not follow a rigid script—workshops provide a framework, but those who excel in this role customize them and create new content when needed.
A successful quarter means every student in your cohort completes their weekly app goals, passes the Test2Pass for all life-skills workshops, and 90% or more report that they love you. Falling short on any of these three measures means the role has not been fulfilled. In your first year, you will internalize the operational playbook; as you demonstrate your ability to uphold standards, advancement to Lead Guide becomes available, where you mentor new hires while continuing to work directly with students.
If you prefer traditional teaching methods, need a prescribed curriculum, or view warmth and rigor as incompatible, this role will not suit you. If your background includes athletic coaching, camp counseling, tutoring where you refused to let students give up, or performance work that allowed you to engage a room of young children, the final stage before an offer is a full-day campus visit where you will coach actual Alpha students. If that prospect excites you most, submit your application today.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour life-skills workshops for K-8 cohorts covering public speaking, focus, feedback, and other essential skills, customizing the playbook and creating new sessions when you identify a need
- Conducting daily one-on-one and small-group coaching sessions that drive every student toward 100% completion of their weekly app goals, leveraging Coachbot analytics, Alpha's incentive structures (school currency, leaderboards), and individual student relationships to overcome resistance
- Delivering the Test2Pass (Alpha's mastery-based assessment) for each life skill and continuing to coach students who do not pass until mastery is achieved
- Adjusting your approach across a broad age spectrum, from kindergarteners who require high energy and physical activity to 8th graders who respond to direct communication and accountability
- Serving as the adult who maintains high expectations while also being someone students trust and seek out; warmth creates the foundation for challenge, and challenge signals your confidence in their ability
What you will NOT be doing
- Delivering whiteboard instruction; academic content is housed in the applications, not in your teaching
- Creating curriculum from the ground up; you activate an established playbook through energy and narrative
- Passively monitoring students on computers; motivation in this context is active, individualized, and persistent
- Reducing a weekly target to allow a student to meet it; when a student falls behind, the solution is effort, not lowered expectations
- Grading assignments, conducting standardized test preparation, or handling parent outreach; Campus Leads manage family-facing responsibilities, and the other tasks do not exist in this model
Key responsibilities
Ensure every student in your K-8 cohort completes their weekly learning targets, achieves mastery in each life skill, and finishes the year reporting that they loved you.
Candidate requirements
- Able to work on-site at an Alpha campus in Denver, CO; Atlanta, GA; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Brownsville, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX (Central, South, or The Woodlands); Park City, UT; or Toronto, Canada (relocation assistance provided)
- Bachelor's degree in any field
- Minimum of 3 years of direct experience with K-8 students (including classroom teaching, coaching, tutoring, camp counseling, or youth program leadership)
- A concrete example you can describe of motivating a K-8 student toward a challenging goal: the objective, your actions, and the result
- Comfort allowing AI to deliver instructional content while you concentrate on motivation and life-skills coaching
- Daily usage of generative AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude)
- Legal authorization to work in the US without visa sponsorship (or in Canada for the Toronto location)
Nice to have
- Background in youth sports coaching, debate, camp leadership, theater, or after-school programs where you held direct responsibility for motivating children toward defined objectives
- History of significant personal achievement (academic, athletic, or professional) that reflects a consistent commitment to holding yourself and others to rigorous standards
- Storytelling ability and stage presence capable of engaging a room of 12-year-olds for an hour without needing to raise your voice
