What are the responsibilities and job description for the Online Youth Mentor, Unbound Academy - $40,000/year USD position at Crossover?
IMPORTANT NOTE: This position requires in-person work in Arizona and operates in a hybrid format.
Imagine a role centered on keeping students motivated, connected, and eager to participate—without the burden of lesson planning, grading, or academic evaluation.
This position is designed for individuals who excel at working with young people and enjoy staying active. At Unbound Academy, a tuition-free virtual charter school, students complete their academic work efficiently using AI-powered tools, then engage in live, interactive workshops that build life skills, teamwork, and self-assurance. Your responsibility is to ensure these sessions flow seamlessly and create a positive environment for every student.
You will serve as the operational backbone of the student experience. You'll facilitate smooth transitions, provide support to small groups, sustain high energy levels, and offer encouragement or guidance when students need it. Content instruction won't fall under your responsibilities—but your presence is essential to making the program work.
If you have experience guiding youth through camps, after-school activities, athletics, tutoring sessions, or community organizations—and you're drawn to a hybrid position that combines virtual engagement with in-person teamwork—this opportunity offers a way to restore the human connection in education.
What You Will Be Doing
Facilitate dynamic virtual learning environments by keeping students engaged, well-organized, and motivated during every workshop session.
