Educational Consultant, Alpha - $150,000/year USD

Campus-based position at an Alpha location: Denver, CO Atlanta, GA Oklahoma City, OK Tulsa, OK Keller (Fort Worth), TX The Woodlands (Houston), TX Park City (Salt Lake City), UT Toronto, Canada$150,000 annual W2 compensation, distributed weekly. Health benefits begin day one.Relocation assistance providedThe most impactful response to a student who scored 99% is explaining they haven't yet passed. If that statement concerns you, this role isn't the right fit. If it resonates, continue reading.Alpha students complete their academics in two hours daily using AI-powered self-directed applications. No traditional teachers. No lectures. No content-focused classroom management. This structure allows you to focus on work that genuinely alters student outcomes: facilitating dynamic workshops on public speaking, concentration, and feedback; driving students toward complete learning goal attainment through live analytics; and developing the Guides working with you.A typical morning may begin with individual Guide coaching, analyzing performance metrics and pinpointing where a cohort needs intervention. Mid-morning transitions to facilitating live student workshops, executing playbook exercises on feedback dynamics. Afternoons center on motivation work: engaging individual students, identifying their intrinsic drivers, and applying Alpha's incentive framework to re-engage a reluctant middle schooler. You maintain direct responsibility for your own cohort, ensuring you remain proficient in the competencies you're developing in others.You've likely been the outlier in education: excessively analytical, overly outcome-oriented, too comfortable questioning conventional approaches to student development. Alpha may be your first true professional alignment. You'll develop other Guides immediately, and as you generate measurable outcomes at scale, your authority over campus program standards expands.Uphold the benchmark. Transform the learner. Submit your application.What You Will Be DoingFacilitating one-hour structured workshops on life competencies (public speaking, concentration, feedback exchange) for K-8 cohorts, executing Alpha's established playbook rather than creating original contentConducting motivation interventions using student performance data and Alpha's incentive architecture (campus currency, competitive rankings) to achieve 100% learning goal attainmentDeveloping Guides on program consistency and standards maintenance, ensuring each coaching interaction yields concrete performance improvementsManaging your own student cohort while simultaneously building Guide capacityMonitoring student engagement metrics, completion percentages, and Guide effectiveness indicators weekly to identify declining performance before it escalatesWhat You Won’t Be DoingTeaching or tutoring academic content to students. Academic learning occurs through independent app-based systems without direct adult instruction.Creating curricula or developing original lesson frameworks. Established playbooks exist; success depends on execution fidelity, not creative innovation.Training Guides on instructional methodology.
