Description
- Location: Dorado, Puerto Rico (on-site) | Compensation: $100,000/year | Full-time: 40 hours/week
If you prefer predictable lesson plans and quiet classrooms, this isn't the right fit. This position requires someone who can lead a group of 10–15 young children with high energy and enforce rigorous standards. You will guide behavior, attention, and accountability in the moment, and you will demand mastery, not just effort.
Alpha is an AI-powered private school founded on a straightforward principle: students can complete core academics more quickly through adaptive learning technology, freeing up time to develop the life skills that genuinely shape their trajectory. Your role is to execute this model for a K–3 group. As a Guide, you oversee a single cohort band — K-1 (Kindergarten–1st) or 2-3 (2nd–3rd) — and adjust your approach, tempo, and activities to suit that band. You will deliver interactive life skills workshops (public speaking, concentration, feedback exchange) and accelerate daily advancement within the learning apps by leveraging Coachbot analytics, defined benchmarks, and reliable motivational frameworks.
This is a high-accountability position. The metrics are explicit: 2x academic growth per semester, 90%+ student satisfaction, and students who demonstrate life-skill competence via Test2Pass. If you're prepared to coach with intensity, accuracy, and commitment, we want to hear from you.
What you will be doing
- Facilitate one-hour, experiential life skills workshops through narrative techniques, dynamic pacing, and hands-on practice to prepare students for Test2Pass
- Leverage Coachbot analytics to identify obstacles early, establish daily and weekly benchmarks, and ensure every student maintains progress in adaptive learning apps
- Conduct group check-ins that reinforce objectives, recognize achievements, and identify challenges before they result in unmet goals
- Deploy motivational frameworks (school currency, leaderboards, rewards) to produce measurable shifts in focus, perseverance, and performance
- Step in immediately when students encounter difficulty or lose focus, coaching problem-solving and self-correction on the spot
What you will NOT be doing
- Providing traditional academic instruction or one-on-one tutoring as the main teaching method
- Monitoring students on devices without active engagement or accountability
- Adjusting weekly targets downward to meet performance metrics artificially
- Facilitating workshops where students attend but fail to show measurable skill acquisition
Key responsibilities
This role is accountable for ensuring a K–3 cohort reliably achieves 2x academic progress per semester while sustaining 90%+ student satisfaction and validated life-skill mastery.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any field
- Full fluency in English
- At least intermediate Spanish proficiency to manage behavior, give directions, and communicate with families
- 3+ years of experience working with children ages 4–9 in high-energy, high-engagement settings (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 running structured workshops that include an assessment or performance check
- Experience using data or learning analytics to drive student progress (e.g., app dashboards, progress reports)
- Direct experience with incentive systems such as points, currency, badges, or leaderboards in a youth setting
