Learning Guide, Alpha - $120,000/year USD

You're a high-performer—one of the rare few who has consistently excelled in everything you've tackled. Maybe you've stood on a national stage, outpaced your competitors, or led the charge in high-stakes situations. But now, you're looking for something more meaningful. Something that channels your drive into real impact.

Alpha is reimagining education, and we're building a new kind of school, one that moves fast, shatters expectations, and puts students in charge of their learning. We believe kids can learn more in less time if we ditch the lectures, ditch the textbooks, and ditch the limits. At Alpha, we don't teach. We guide. We coach. We push kids to be better than they thought possible.

You'll inspire students to embrace curiosity, take ownership of their growth, and develop a mindset that's truly limitless. This isn't about following a lesson plan; it's about modeling excellence and turning your personal success into a vehicle for theirs. If you're ready to help kids think bigger, move faster, and aim higher, Alpha is ready for you.
