Jobbeschreibung

On-site at Alpha School's Dorado, Puerto Rico campus

"All of my students came back in the top 1% for growth and achievement on their MAP scores."

— Sam DePalo, Lead Guide, Alpha Fort Worth Texas

Alpha is hiring.

• On-site at Alpha School's Dorado, Puerto Rico campus
• $100,000/year ($50/hour, 40 hours/week), paid weekly
• No formal teaching certification required; Spanish fluency helpful

The most supportive thing you can do for a student who hit 99% of their goal is refuse to call it done. If that standard makes you uncomfortable, this role isn't for you. If it makes you light up because holding the bar is how you show a kid you believe they can clear it, keep reading.

Alpha School runs a 2 Hour Learning model: K-8 students master a full day of academics in about two hours through adaptive learning apps. No lectures. No textbooks. Your job as Facilitador Educativo is the part the software can't do — coaching kids through life skills like public speaking, focus, teamwork, and giving and receiving feedback.

You'll spend 60% of your week on one-on-one motivation: pulling up learning app dashboards and Coachbot analytics, spotting where an 8-year-old is stuck on fractions or a 5th grader is avoiding reading, and getting them unstuck. The other 40% is running interactive, hour-long workshops that look more like improv rehearsals than classes. Every student must prove mastery through Test2Pass assessments before moving on.

This role evolves. You'll own a small cohort and master Alpha's playbook in year one. Prove you can hold every student to 100% of their goals while keeping satisfaction scores high, and the path opens to Lead Guide, then Campus Lead (where you run an entire school). You'll watch a kid who couldn't make eye contact in September deliver a confident presentation to a room of parents by spring.

Apply if you believe 30 kids sitting in rows listening to one adult is an insult to what kids can do.

What You Will Be Doing

• Coaching K-8 students one-on-one and in small groups through adaptive learning apps, using Coachbot analytics and dashboards to find who's stuck and why
• Applying Alpha's motivation framework (leaderboards, incentives, weekly goal-setting) so every student advances at the expected pace
• Running hour-long, hands-on life-skills workshops on public speaking, focus, teamwork, and giving and receiving feedback (project-based and interactive, never lecture-style)
• Administering Test2Pass mastery assessments and holding the line: students don't advance until they demonstrate they've truly got it
• Building trust with students so high accountability feels motivating, not punitive

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Lecturing or delivering traditional academic instruction (students learn core subjects through adaptive apps, not from you)
• Writing lesson plans from scratch — Alpha provides the curriculum and playbooks; you bring them to life with energy and storytelling
• Grading stacks of homework or prepping kids for standardized tests; none of that exists here
• Managing parent relationships or school operations — Campus Leads own those, so you stay focused on your cohort
• Passively supervising kids on laptops; if you're not actively coaching, you're not doing the job

Facilitador Educativo Key Responsibilities

Coach a cohort of K-8 students to hit 100% of their academic and life-skills goals.

Basic Requirements

• Willing to work in-person at Alpha's campus in Dorado, Puerto Rico
• Bachelor's degree in any subject
• 3+ years of hands-on experience working directly with K-8 (kindergarten through 8th grade) students through teaching, tutoring, youth programs, camps, or sports coaching
• Evidence of high personal achievement, academic, athletic, or professional
• Ability to engage groups of K-8 students through energetic, interactive workshops
• Demonstrated ability to motivate young people through obstacles and toward ambitious goals
• Leadership and role-model behavior that combines high standards with strong support
• Legal right to work in the United States or Puerto Rico without visa sponsorship

Nice-to-have Requirements

• Fluent in both English and Spanish for building rapport with students and families in the Dorado community
• Coaching background where high standards drove measurable outcomes (competitive sports, debate, performance arts, or selective youth programs)
• Experience running youth workshops, summer camps, or after-school programs where you designed the activities, not just supervised
• Familiarity with adaptive or app-based learning platforms (e.g., Khan Academy, IXL, DreamBox)
