Description
- On-site in Houston, TX — positioned at Central Houston, South Houston, or The Woodlands campuses (relocation assistance available)
- $100,000 annual salary, disbursed weekly. Full health, dental, and vision coverage begins immediately
The most powerful way to support a student who achieved 99% of their target is to refuse to accept it as complete. If that principle unsettles you, this position won't be the right fit. If it energizes you because you understand that maintaining high expectations demonstrates your belief in a student's ability to meet them, continue reading.
Alpha operates differently from conventional schools. Students complete a full academic day in roughly two hours using adaptive technology. No traditional lectures. No physical textbooks. Your role covers what software cannot replicate: guiding Pre-K through 8th grade students in essential life competencies such as public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback exchange. You'll spend half your time facilitating interactive workshops using prepared frameworks and narrative techniques. The remaining half involves meeting with students individually or in small clusters, analyzing their advancement through adaptive platforms via Coachbot analytics, and challenging them to reach 100% of their weekly objectives. Students demonstrate competency through Test2Pass evaluations, not engagement metrics.
During your first year, you'll manage a designated student group and internalize Alpha's methodology: life competency workshops, motivational coaching, mastery-driven assessments. Once you demonstrate consistent ability to guide every student toward 100% goal completion while maintaining satisfaction ratings above 90%, advancement opportunities emerge to Lead Guide, where you'll mentor fellow Guides while maintaining direct student interaction. High performers in this position don't merely impact individual trajectories; they influence campus-wide operational culture.
If you've invested years coaching, counseling, or mentoring young people while wishing you could eliminate traditional instruction and concentrate solely on developmental growth, this opportunity aligns with that vision.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour life competency workshops for Pre-K–8 students covering public speaking, concentration, teamwork, and constructive feedback practices (interactive and application-based)
- Conducting daily individual and small-group coaching sessions where you examine each student's advancement in adaptive learning platforms (via Coachbot analytics), establish objectives, and challenge them to complete 100% of their weekly benchmarks
- Overseeing and assessing Test2Pass evaluations to verify students have genuinely achieved mastery of each life skill, beyond simple participation
- Adjusting your coaching approach across diverse developmental stages, from Pre-K learners requiring dynamic engagement and physical activity to 8th graders needing direct communication and responsibility
- Cultivating authentic connections with each student so they develop sufficient trust to receive coaching through challenges, distractions, and uncertainty
What you will NOT be doing
- Presenting lectures or providing conventional academic instruction (students acquire core subjects through adaptive applications, not direct teaching from you)
- Creating lesson frameworks or curriculum materials independently (Alpha supplies life skills frameworks; your responsibility is to execute them with enthusiasm and narrative skill)
- Handling parent communications or administrative functions (Campus Leads manage those areas; you remain concentrated on student development)
- Evaluating assignments or coordinating standardized testing preparation (these elements don't exist in this model)
- Operating independently (you function within a campus team alongside Lead Guides, Campus Leads, and colleagues who exchange feedback and maintain mutual accountability)
Key responsibilities
Guarantee that every student in your assigned cohort develops enthusiasm for learning, achieves mastery of critical life skills, and completes 100% of their academic objectives through adaptive learning technology.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any discipline
- 3+ years of direct experience working with Pre-K–8 students (teaching, coaching, counseling, or youth program management)
- Demonstrated experience motivating or coaching Pre-K–8 students toward academic, behavioral, or extracurricular objectives, with at least one concrete example you can articulate (the objective, your specific actions, and the result)
- Regular use of generative AI platforms (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude)
- Available to work on-site at Alpha's Central Houston, South Houston, or The Woodlands campus (relocation assistance provided)
- Legal authorization to work in the United States without requiring visa sponsorship
Nice to have
- Background in youth sports coaching, camp coordination, or after-school program facilitation where you held direct responsibility for motivating children to achieve defined objectives
- History of notable personal accomplishment (academic distinctions, competitive athletics, or leadership positions requiring consistent high performance)
- Innate narrative ability: you can maintain the attention of a group of 12-year-olds for an hour without increasing volume
- Experience motivating disengaged or reluctant students and converting them into engaged contributors
