Reading Interventionist, Alpha - $100,000/year USD

Traditional schools often teach at students rather than engaging them as active participants in their own learning. Alpha Schools has built a model that replaces conventional lectures and printed textbooks with AI-driven adaptive learning platforms and peer mentorship. Students advance according to their individual readiness. Your role is to guide them toward self-discovery and personal strengths, not to deliver pre-written lesson plans. We seek high-performing individuals ready to apply their capabilities to transforming an outdated educational system. You will not spend time grading assignments or adhering to rigid curricula. Instead, you will facilitate workshops, spark curiosity, and demonstrate that student-owned education removes the ceiling on learning.
