Résumé du poste

Alpha School in Greenwich, CT seeks a Youth Development Specialist to lead life skills workshops and coach K-8 students. This in-person role focuses on coaching, motivation, and skill development rather than traditional classroom teaching.

You will empower students, analyze performance data, and adapt coaching across ages, with opportunities for growth into leadership roles within the campus.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in any discipline.
• At least 3 years of experience working directly with K-8 students through teaching, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, camp leadership, or youth programs.
• Authorized to work in the United States without current or future visa sponsorship.
• Willing to work in person at an Alpha campus.

Responsabilités

• Leading high-energy, one-hour life skills workshops for K-8 students, developing communication, resilience, focus, leadership, and other durable skills while continuously improving the workshop experience.
• Coaching students individually and in small groups using Coachbot analytics, personalized accountability, and Alpha's motivation systems to help every student achieve ambitious weekly goals.
• Assessing life skill mastery through Test2Pass and providing targeted coaching until every student demonstrates genuine competence, not just participation.
• Adapting your coaching style across elementary and middle school students, knowing when a kindergartner needs movement and encouragement and when an eighth grader needs direct accountability.
• Analyzing weekly student performance data to identify patterns, remove obstacles, and continually improve outcomes for your entire cohort.
