Early Childhood Educator, Alpha

Overview

Traditional education systems often teach at students rather than engaging them as active participants in their own learning. Alpha Schools is building a new model. We ve eliminated lectures and textbooks in favor of AI-driven adaptive learning paired with mentorship at the student level. Each child advances based on their individual readiness. Your role is to guide them toward recognizing their capabilities, not to follow a prescribed lesson plan.

This position is designed for high-capacity professionals who want to apply that energy to reforming an outdated system. You will not spend time grading assignments or adhering to rigid curricula. Instead, you ll facilitate workshops, spark intellectual engagement, and demonstrate that students achieve more when they direct their own learning.
