Job description

We're looking for an executive function coach to work with kids and teens ages 5 to 17 in the north Houston area (Conroe, The Woodlands, Spring, Kingwood, Montgomery County, etc.).

Our families come to us because their child struggles with anything from focus, to big feelings, to setting/accomplishing goals, to staying organized.

This is not tutoring.

Most of these kids are bright. They just were never taught the skills behind following through, and that's where you come in!

You'll coach students 1-1 or possibly in small groups, mostly in family homes or learning centers, potentially with some virtual sessions. Sessions are hands-on, play-based, and tailored to the specific situations each child is dealing with. We'll provide the curriculum, and you'll bring your unique personality, expertise, and life wisdom to share.

We do our best to match our coaches to students based on interests, learning styles, and other qualities that help them build real relationships with students, forming the trust and familiarity that allow for deeper learning to take root and bloom.

What you'll do

• Run one-on-one and/or small group coaching sessions (no more than 5) using our curriculum
• Follow our coaching plan for each student in sessions, with ongoing coaching from us along the way, and track their progress
• Write session notes within 48 hours of each session
• Keep families updated in a warm, professional way
• Join team meetings and trainings as needed

What we're looking for

• Experience working with children, whether as a teacher, tutor, mentor, counselor, or coach
• Patient and a calm presence with kids
• Comfortable explaining things to parents in simple terms
• Reliable transportation to in-person sessions in north Houston
• Bilingual English and Spanish is a big plus
• Ability to pass a background check
• You do not need a background in psychology or special education but it's a big plus. We train you in our coaching approach.

Pay and schedule

• W-2 employee, on-call and as-needed, so hours vary with client demand
• $40 per hour for all hours actively worked (additional pay for working with small groups)
• 5% commission on any new client you refer who enrolls
• No benefits with this position
• Busiest times are weekday afternoons, evenings and weekend mornings
