Description

LOCATION NOTE: This role is based in person at our Brownsville, Texas campus. Relocation support is provided.

Do you excel at challenging conventions and transforming expectations? Are you searching for a role that combines impact, excitement, and the ability to reshape young lives? Alpha Schools is pioneering a new model of education—and we want you to join our mission at the Brownsville campus.

Alpha isn't just another school—it's a reinvention of learning. Move beyond traditional lectures, static classrooms, and standardized testing. Picture an environment where students achieve double the learning in half the time, supported by you—a dynamic, motivating coach—who transforms education into an exciting journey toward mastery and essential life competencies. And here's a bonus: we're located next to SpaceX. The cutting edge of education, right beside the cutting edge of space.

Alpha students don't simply attend class. They excel academically using adaptive technology and mastery-driven approaches, while simultaneously building vital skills like leadership, public speaking, and critical thinking. We need someone who can ignite the drive that pushes students to embrace challenges and unlock their full capabilities.

Consider applying if…

  • You're prepared to participate in reimagining the future of education.
  • You bring experience inspiring, guiding, or coaching young people in non-conventional environments (athletic coaching, camp leadership, etc.).
  • You embody the qualities of a mentor with infectious passion for achieving excellence.

What makes Alpha the right choice?

  • A rare adventure: This position offers more than employment—it's a chance to drive educational transformation in a dynamic, distinctive community.
  • Meaningful influence: Contribute to developing a generation of students who excel both academically and personally.
  • Strong compensation: Pursue meaningful work without sacrificing financial stability.
  • Professional advancement: We invest in your growth through mentorship, training programs, and leadership progression.
  • A cohesive, purpose-driven culture: Become part of a team of dedicated professionals committed to reshaping education.

This is your opportunity to build the future of learning—and advance your own career in the process.

What you will be doing

  • Facilitating Workshops: Create and deliver workshops that leave students thinking, "I never realized I was capable of this!" You'll teach practical skills—from entrepreneurship to public speaking—that energize and empower.
  • Running daily Motivation Sessions: Begin each day by helping students establish ambitious goals and develop the mindset required to achieve them.
  • Driving student achievement: Apply structured playbooks to ensure each student reaches challenging academic and personal milestones.
  • Designing personalized motivational approaches: Collaborate with students to build reward systems and incentives that fuel intrinsic motivation and self-directed success.

What you will NOT be doing

  • Conventional instruction: Leave behind chalkboards and lecture formats. Alpha students engage with advanced learning apps for core academics—you're here to mentor, motivate, and enhance their educational experience.
  • Enforcing discipline: Punishment isn't part of our approach. You'll rely on reasoning and affirmative strategies to foster a respectful, stimulating learning atmosphere.

Candidate requirements

  • Willingness to work in person in Brownsville, TX. Relocation assistance is available.
  • Bachelor's degree in any subject.
  • Experience employing a growth mindset to achieve a high level of performance
  • High level of energy and a desire to boost others up.
