Description
Most educators pour their energy into battling a broken system. They draft lesson plans no one will ever read. They endure faculty meetings that produce no real change. You recognized long ago that none of that is the real work. The real work is the student sitting in front of you.
At Alpha, academic instruction is delivered through software. Adaptive applications guide each student through content at an individualized pace. There are no lectures, no homework assignments, no grading. This structure liberates you to focus on work that genuinely transforms lives: facilitating life skill workshops where high schoolers develop competencies in public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback, then providing one-on-one coaching to sustain their motivation and help them achieve learning targets. Half your time is spent leading group sessions. The other half is spent in individual conversations, using Coachbot analytics to identify precisely where a student is struggling and why.
Students complete a mastery-based assessment following each workshop. 90%+ should rate your performance highly. 100% should be making progress in their learning apps. These aren't aspirational targets; they define the standard. Maintaining high expectations is how you demonstrate belief in their potential. In this role, you'll develop expertise in designing workshops that teenagers are eager to attend, mastering advanced learning software, and forming meaningful relationships with students and their families. Our Brownsville campus is located adjacent to SpaceX. The leading edge of education meets the leading edge of space exploration, and you'll be the one fulfilling Alpha's central promise: students who are engaged in school, learn at twice the typical rate, and develop skills with real-world relevance. If you've been looking for a school that operates the way you believe schools should, this is that opportunity.
What you will be doing
- Facilitating one-hour life skill workshops with high school students covering topics such as public speaking, concentration, and constructive feedback exchange, then assessing mastery using a structured Test2Pass evaluation
- Conducting daily motivation sessions that leverage Coachbot analytics to engage individual students, pinpoint obstacles in their learning apps, and help them overcome resistance
- Collaborating with students to develop personalized motivational approaches, including reward systems and incentives that encourage independent progress in academic apps
- Preparing by reviewing curriculum and lesson plans prior to each session, then adjusting your delivery based on real-time assessment of the group dynamic
What you will NOT be doing
- Delivering academic instruction. Software is responsible for math, reading, and all other subjects.
- Overseeing school operations or managing staff. No budgets, no recruitment, no operational meetings; your complete attention is on your student cohort.
- Enforcing discipline through conventional authority. No detentions, no suspensions, no "because I said so." You rely on reasoning and positive reinforcement to create a respectful, energized learning environment.
Key responsibilities
Develop a cohort of high school students who are engaged in school, learn 2x faster through adaptive software, and achieve mastery of practical life skills.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any subject
- 3+ years of experience working directly with high school students (ages 13-18)
- Willing to work in-person in Oklahoma City, OK (relocation assistance available)
- Legal right to work in the US
Nice to have
- Experience as an athletic coach, camp counselor, or youth program facilitator who has motivated teenagers in non-traditional classroom settings
- Demonstrated success in guiding groups toward quantifiable objectives (completion rates, performance metrics, behavioral outcomes)
- Familiarity with adaptive learning platforms or educational technology tools
- Ability to tell stories that capture and hold the attention of teenage audiences, delivered with cultural sensitivity and relevance
