Description
- Location: Dorado, Puerto Rico (on-site) | Compensation: $100,000/year | Full-time: 40 hours/week
If you prefer predictable lesson plans and quiet compliance, this isn't the right fit. This position requires someone who can take charge of a room with 10–15 young children, sustain high energy levels, and enforce rigorous standards without compromise. You'll be coaching behavior, attention, and accountability in the moment, and you'll demand mastery—not symbolic effort.
Alpha is an AI-powered private school founded on a straightforward principle: children can achieve core academic competencies more rapidly through adaptive learning technology, freeing time to develop the life skills that genuinely shape their trajectory. Your role is to execute this model with a K–3 cohort. As a Guide, you'll lead one cohort band—either K-1 (Kindergarten–1st grade) or 2-3 (2nd–3rd grade)—and customize your approach, tempo, and workshop content to match that band. You'll facilitate hands-on life skills workshops (including public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback exchange) and accelerate daily academic progress within learning apps by leveraging Coachbot analytics, explicit benchmarks, and reliable motivation structures.
This is a high-accountability position. Success metrics are unambiguous: 2x academic progress per semester, 90%+ student satisfaction, and students who can demonstrate life-skill competency via Test2Pass. If you're prepared to coach with intensity, exactness, and confidence, we're interested in speaking with you.
What you will be doing
- Facilitate one-hour, hands-on life skills workshops leveraging storytelling, pacing, and active engagement so students successfully complete Test2Pass
- Leverage Coachbot analytics to identify obstacles early, establish daily and weekly benchmarks, and maintain momentum for every student in adaptive learning apps
- Facilitate group check-ins that reinforce objectives, acknowledge achievements, and identify issues before they result in unmet targets
- Deploy motivation systems (school currency, leaderboards, rewards) to produce measurable behavioral improvements in focus, persistence, and performance
- Step in immediately when students encounter difficulty or lose focus, coaching self-correction and problem-solving on the spot
What you will NOT be doing
- Delivering traditional academic lectures or providing one-on-one tutoring as the main instructional method
- Supervising children on devices in a passive capacity while assuming progress will occur on its own
- Adjusting weekly targets downward to create the appearance of success
- Conducting workshops where students attend but fail to show mastery upon completion
Key responsibilities
This role exists to ensure a K–3 cohort reliably achieves 2x academic progress per semester while sustaining 90%+ student satisfaction and confirmed life-skill mastery.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any field
- Full fluency in English
- At least intermediate Spanish proficiency to manage behavior, provide instructions, and interact with families
- 3+ years of experience working with children ages 4–9 in high-energy, high-engagement environments (classroom, camp, coaching, or afterschool programs)
- Experience actively managing and engaging groups of 10–15+ young children (not supervision-only)
- Exposure to structured goal-setting or progress targets with children
- Track record of receiving performance feedback and applying it
- Willing to work in person in Dorado, Puerto Rico
- Legal authorization to work in Puerto Rico without sponsorship
Nice to have
- Experience facilitating structured workshops that incorporate an assessment or performance verification
- Experience leveraging data or learning analytics to accelerate student progress (e.g., app dashboards, progress reports)
- Direct experience implementing incentive systems such as points, currency, badges, or leaderboards in a youth environment
