This position provides you with the independence and resources to elevate our advanced learning methodology. Grounded in learning science and enhanced by adaptive technology, we are reshaping the educational landscape. Your expertise is essential to making this vision a reality. You will serve as the catalyst, coach, and strategist for our Guides—the frontline learning facilitators who inspire rather than simply instruct.

Competitive compensation— we believe education professionals deserve strong salaries. Comprehensive benefits and time off— we prioritize our team with robust benefits and paid leave. Culture of growth and learning— we embody the same growth mindset we cultivate in our students, offering coaching, training, and leadership pathways.

Developing Guide Playbooks that outline facilitation best practices, designing engaging learning activities, and addressing challenges. Delivering consistent, actionable feedback to Guides to enhance student engagement and success. Personally mentoring a small group of students, demonstrating expert coaching and motivational techniques. What You Won’t Be Doing Creating lesson plans— your Guides support students’ learning through adaptive applications; you focus on training them to become outstanding facilitators. Compromising standards— if our benchmark is 100%, you are responsible for upholding that expectation. Conducting dull training sessions— you'll develop Guides through dynamic, energetic, experiential learning.
