At Alpha School, we're proving literacy breakthroughs don't require 6-hour school days. Our 2-Hour Learning model fuses AI-adaptive tools with expert instruction to accelerate reading gains. Your mission: design and deliver workshops that drive measurable phonics, fluency, and comprehension gains for early elementary students.
This isn't lesson-plan paperwork. It's data-driven instruction, tech collaboration, and building a reading program that works for thousands of students.
Dorado perks: Pristine beaches minutes away. Vibrant bilingual community and easy access to San Juan's cultural scene while maintaining small-town quality of life.

- Collaborating with engineers to evaluate and enhance AI literacy tools based on classroom results
- Developing scalable, AI-enhanced content that enables early elementary students to achieve grade-level proficiency
What you will NOT be doing
