Performance Coach, Alpha - $120,000/year USD

Crossover
Alexandria, VA
  • On-site position in Santa Barbara, San Francisco, or Miami
  • $120,000 annual compensation, distributed weekly. Full health benefits from day one, plus HSA/FSA and 401(k) Roth options
  • Relocation assistance provided for candidates willing to move

  • Traditional schools confine exceptional students to lecture formats built for the average learner.

    Alpha operates differently: we deliver student-driven education that accelerates at the rate of ability, not the rhythm of a standard curriculum.

    This role does not involve managing 30 desks or executing district-mandated lesson plans. You will coach small cohorts of self-motivated students eager to accelerate their progress, explore subjects more deeply, and take ownership of their learning journey. If your success has come through non-traditional routes—competitive achievement, athletics, entrepreneurial ventures, or creative disciplines—and you understand how to convert ambition into measurable outcomes, this position translates your proven methods into student impact.

    Teaching certification not required. Demonstrated excellence required.

    Coach high performers. Shape trajectories. Submit your application.

    What You Will Be Doing

    • Mentoring and inspiring students through consistent, daily interaction—coaching at a peer level rather than delivering lectures
    • Leveraging adaptive learning technology and AI-driven platforms to enable individualized pacing for each student
    • Facilitating small-group sessions centered on leadership development, life skills, and practical success frameworks
    • Guiding students to identify personal strengths and broaden their goals via customized growth pathways
    • Advancing Alpha's educational model through continuous contribution of data, observations, and innovative thinking

    Basic Requirements

    Performance Coach key responsibilities

    • Bachelor's degree in any discipline
    • Proven track record of exceptional achievement (examples: top academic distinctions, D1/Olympic-level athletics, national-level competitions, etc.)
    • 3 years of direct experience working with K–8 students in mentoring, coaching, or teaching roles
    • Excellent verbal communication and public speaking abilities
    • Legal authorization to work in the United States without employer sponsorship
    • Availability to work on-site in Miami, FL; Santa Barbara, CA; or San Francisco, CA
