Salary is $150,000/year (W2), paid weekly, with day‑one health benefits. Relocation support is available. Responsibilities Facilitate one‑hour live workshops on life skills (public speaking, focus, giving and receiving feedback) for K‑8 cohorts, executing Alpha’s playbook rather than creating content independently. Conduct motivation sessions using student data and Alpha’s incentive framework (school currency, leaderboards) to achieve 100% student goal attainment. Develop Guides on program adherence and standards maintenance, providing concrete improvement steps in each session. Manage your own student cohort while simultaneously training other Guides. Monitor student satisfaction metrics, goal completion percentages, and Guide performance indicators weekly to identify underperformance early. What You Won’t Be Doing Deliver lectures or provide academic tutoring to students. Create curriculum or develop original lesson plans. Train Guides on instructional methods. Grant exceptions when a student reaches 99% rather than 100%. Serve as an “empathy champion” common in traditional schools. Key Responsibilities Deliver Alpha’s three commitments to every student in your cohort: they love school, learn twice as fast as a traditional classroom, and develop real‑life skills.
