About the role

Alpha is an AI-powered private school where students master core academics with adaptive learning apps and spend the rest of the day building life skills. As a Life Skills Coach (Guide), you lead one K-3 cohort band (K-1 or 2-3) and run hands-on workshops on public speaking, focus and giving and receiving feedback. The role is full-time, on-site in Dorado, Puerto Rico, at $100,000 USD per year.

• Use Coachbot analytics to spot blockers early, set daily and weekly targets and keep students on pace in adaptive learning apps
• Lead group check-ins that reinforce goals, celebrate wins and surface problems before they become missed targets
• Apply motivation systems (school currency, leaderboards, incentives) to drive visible behavior change in focus, persistence and output
• Intervene immediately when students are stuck or off-task, coaching problem-solving and self-correction in the moment

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in any field
• Fluent English and at least intermediate Spanish
• 3+ years of experience working with children ages 4-9 in high-energy settings (classroom, camp, coaching or afterschool)
• Experience managing groups of 10-15+ young children and exposure to structured goal-setting
• Track record of receiving performance feedback and applying it
