Elementary School Teacher

$100,000 USD/year ^{Pay is set based on global value, not the local market. Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks}  ($50 USD/hour)

• Facilitating one-hour life-skills workshops for groups of 10-15 K-2 students covering public speaking, concentration, feedback, and other foundational skills
• Conducting daily 1:1 and small-group coaching sessions that maintain students' progress toward weekly app targets, leveraging Coachbot analytics, Alpha's incentive structures (school currency, leaderboards), and the individual relationship you've established with each child
• Delivering the Test2Pass (Alpha's mastery-based evaluation) for each life skill, and providing coaching to students who don't pass until they achieve mastery
• Engaging kindergarteners at their developmental level using songs, stories, physical movement, and humor, while maintaining real, quantifiable expectations for first and second graders
• Serving as the warm adult children are excited to see at arrival AND the adult who will not permit them to settle for less than their best

• Delivering whiteboard lectures; academic content is handled by the apps, not by you
• Creating curriculum from the ground up; Alpha supplies the framework and you execute it
• Simply monitoring students on computers; motivation here is active, individualized, and continuous
• Reducing a weekly target so a child can meet it; when a student falls behind, the solution is coaching the student, not adjusting the goal
• Evaluating homework, conducting standardized test preparation, or handling parent communications; Campus Leads manage parent interactions, and the other tasks don't exist in this model

Ensure every student in your K-2 cohort completes their weekly learning targets, achieves mastery of each life skill, and finishes the year saying they loved you.

• Willing to work on-site at an Alpha campus in Phoenix, AZ; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX; or Park City (Salt Lake City), UT (relocation assistance provided)
• Bachelor's degree in any field
• Minimum 3 years of direct experience working with children ages 4 to 8 (early-elementary teaching, coaching, tutoring, camp counseling, or youth program leadership)
• A concrete example you can articulate of motivating a young child toward a challenging goal: the specific goal, your approach, and the result
• Available to participate in a paid training program at our Austin, TX campus
• Comfortable allowing AI to deliver instructional content while you concentrate on motivation and life-skills coaching
• Legally authorized to work in the US without requiring visa sponsorship

• Background in youth sports coaching, children's theater, camp leadership, Montessori/progressive early education, or after-school programs where you held direct responsibility for motivating young children toward defined objectives
• Personal track record of high achievement (academic, athletic, or professional), demonstrating that holding others to rigorous standards is authentic, not performative
• Natural performer's energy with young children — the capacity to captivate a room of kindergarteners through voice, humor, and movement
• Demonstrated ability to transform hesitant or reluctant young children into confident, engaged participants
