Description
- Location: Dorado, Puerto Rico (on-site) | Compensation: $100,000/year | Full-time: 40 hours/week
If you're looking for a scripted curriculum and a calm, predictable classroom, this isn't the role. This position is designed for someone who can take charge of a room with 10–15 young children, sustain high energy throughout the day, and enforce rigorous standards without exception. You'll be coaching behavior, attention, and accountability in the moment, and you'll demand mastery—not just effort or attendance.
Alpha is an AI-powered private school founded on one core principle: children can accelerate through foundational academics using adaptive learning technology, freeing up time to develop the life skills that truly shape their trajectory. Your responsibility is to bring this model to life for students in grades K–3. As a Guide, you'll oversee a single cohort band—either K-1 (Kindergarten–1st grade) or 2-3 (2nd–3rd grade)—and customize your approach, tempo, and workshop design for that specific group. You'll facilitate interactive life skills workshops (such as public speaking, focus training, and feedback exchange) and propel daily academic progress through adaptive learning apps, supported by Coachbot analytics, defined benchmarks, and reliable motivation frameworks.
This role demands accountability at every level. Success is measured plainly: 2x academic progress per semester, 90%+ student satisfaction, and demonstrated life-skill mastery validated through Test2Pass. If you're prepared to coach with intensity, structure, and purpose, we're ready to hear from you.
What you will be doing
- Facilitate one-hour, experiential life skills workshops that use narrative techniques, pacing strategies, and live practice to prepare students for Test2Pass
- Leverage Coachbot analytics to identify obstacles early, establish daily and weekly performance targets, and ensure every student stays on track within adaptive learning apps
- Conduct group check-ins that reinforce objectives, recognize achievements, and identify challenges before they escalate into missed milestones
- Deploy motivation systems (school currency, leaderboards, incentive structures) to produce measurable shifts in focus, persistence, and student output
- Step in immediately when students encounter difficulty or lose focus, coaching problem-solving and self-correction as issues arise
What you will NOT be doing
- Providing traditional academic lectures or one-on-one tutoring as the main method of instruction
- Supervising students on devices from a distance without active engagement or intervention
- Adjusting weekly performance goals downward to artificially improve metrics
- Facilitating workshops where students go through the motions but fail to demonstrate actual mastery afterward
Key responsibilities
This role ensures that a K–3 cohort reliably achieves 2x academic progress each 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, 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
