$150,000 USD/year ^{Pay is set based on global value, not the local market. Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks}  ($75 USD/hour)

• Facilitating one-hour structured workshops on life competencies (public speaking, concentration, feedback exchange) for K-8 cohorts, executing Alpha's established playbook rather than creating content independently
• Conducting motivation interventions using student data and Alpha's incentive architecture (campus currency, performance rankings) to achieve 100% goal attainment across your cohort
• Developing Guides on program adherence and standards execution, ensuring each coaching session yields specific performance improvements
• Managing your own student cohort while simultaneously building the capacity of other Guides
• Monitoring student satisfaction metrics, goal completion percentages, and Guide effectiveness data on a weekly basis to identify performance gaps before they escalate

• Providing direct instruction or academic tutoring in content areas. Students engage with self-guided applications independently, without adult supervision in the learning space.
• Creating curriculum materials or developing original lesson structures. The playbook is established; success is measured by execution fidelity, not creative innovation.
• Training Guides on instructional pedagogy. Since Guides do not teach content, your coaching centers on presence, motivation, and accountability systems.
• Accepting 99% when the standard is 100%. Maintaining the bar demonstrates your belief in their capacity to reach it.
• Serving as the campus emotional support default. Students receive genuine connection alongside honest feedback and meaningful accountability.

Fulfill Alpha's three core commitments for every student in your cohort: enthusiasm for school, learning velocity double that of traditional classrooms, and measurable development of essential life competencies.
