Experiential Education Facilitator

$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 1-hour outdoor life-skills sessions (public speaking, concentration, leadership, collaboration) through nature-based adventure activities following Waypoint's curriculum and instructional playbook
• Conducting individual motivation sessions with students, leveraging Coachbot analytics and student profile information to guide them toward weekly academic objectives
• Completing each session with a Test2Pass mastery assessment: students apply the targeted life skill in authentic context before concluding
• Exercising outdoor safety protocols before every session: evaluating routes and weather conditions, inspecting equipment, and implementing Leave No Trace principles according to Waypoint's field standards
• Animating sessions through narrative techniques, creative adaptation, and the presence required to maintain engagement from K-12 cohorts in indoor and outdoor environments

• Conducting academic lectures or traditional board instruction. Students acquire content knowledge through adaptive educational technology; your function is coaching through obstacles, not content delivery.
• Supervising students during computer-based learning. Your focus is actively leading outdoor sessions, conducting motivation meetings, and coaching students through challenges.
• Evaluating assignments, creating original lesson plans, or preparing students for standardized examinations.
• Reducing expectations for students facing difficulties. Goals remain rigorous, mastery defines the standard, and your responsibility is coaching students to success — not adjusting requirements.
• Handling parent correspondence or administrative school functions. These duties fall under the Campus Lead's purview.
