Ai Tutor Jobs in Colorado (NOW HIRING)

• $100,000/year W2 salary, paid weekly; day-one health, dental, vision benefits
• On-site at an Alpha K-8 campus in Denver, CO; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Brownsville, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston (Central, South, or The Woodlands), TX; Park City, UT (Salt Lake City area); or Toronto, Canada (relocation support provided)

You are not a teacher. You motivate.

The most supportive thing you can do for a kid who hit 99% of their goal is refuse to call it done. If that standard makes you uncomfortable, stop reading. If it makes you light up because holding the bar is how you show a student you believe they can clear it, keep going.

At Alpha, students learn their academics through AI-powered apps. No lectures. No textbooks. Half your day you run one-hour life-skills workshops on public speaking, focus, and giving and receiving real feedback. The other half, you sit with students 1:1 or in small groups, review their progress through Coachbot analytics, and push each of them to 100% of their weekly app goals. You will not deliver a script — workshops are a starting point, but the best in this role adapt them and design new ones when something's missing.

A quarter succeeds when every student in your cohort hits their weekly app goals, passes the Test2Pass for every life-skills workshop, and 90%+ say they love you. Missing any of those three is missing the job. In year one you master the playbook; as you prove you can hold the bar, the path opens to Lead Guide, where you coach newer hires while still working directly with kids.

If you love traditional teaching, want a curriculum handed to you, or believe warmth and high standards are in tension, this is not the job. If you've been an athletic coach, a camp counselor, a tutor who refused to let a kid quit, or a performer who could hold a room of eight-year-olds, the final step before an offer is a full day on campus coaching real Alpha students. If that is the part that excites you most, apply today.

What you will be doing

• Leading one-hour life-skills workshops for K-8 cohorts on public speaking, focus, feedback, and other durable skills, adapting the playbook and designing new sessions when you spot a gap
• Running daily 1:1 and small-group motivation sessions that push every student to 100% of their weekly app goals, using Coachbot analytics, Alpha's incentive systems (school currency, leaderboards), and your relationship with each kid to break resistance
• Administering the Test2Pass (Alpha's mastery-based assessment) for each life skill, and coaching students who don't pass until they do
• Adapting your coaching style across a wide age range, from kindergarteners who need high energy and movement to 8th graders who need real talk and accountability
• Being the adult who holds the bar and the adult kids want to talk to; warmth earns you the right to push, and pushing shows you believe they can get there

What you won't be doing

• Lecturing at a whiteboard; academic instruction lives in the apps, not in you
• Writing curriculum from scratch; you bring a proven playbook to life with energy and storytelling
• Supervising kids at computers; motivation here is active, personal, and relentless
• Lowering a weekly goal to help a student hit it; if a kid is behind, the fix is the kid, not the target
• Grading homework, running standardized test prep, or managing parent communication; Campus Leads own parent-facing work, and none of the rest exists here

Guide key responsibilities

Ensure every student in your K-8 cohort hits their weekly learning goals, masters each life skill, and leaves the year saying they loved you.

Basic Requirements

• Willing to work in-person at an Alpha campus in Denver, CO; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Brownsville, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX (Central, South, or The Woodlands); Park City, UT; or Toronto, Canada (relocation support provided)
• Bachelor's degree in any subject
• At least 3 years working directly with K-8 students (classroom teaching, coaching, tutoring, camp counseling, or youth program leadership)
• A specific example you can describe of motivating a K-8 student to a hard goal: the goal, what you did, and the outcome
• Willingness to let AI handle the instructional content while you focus on motivation and life-skills coaching
• Daily use of generative AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude)
• Legal right to work in the US without visa sponsorship (or in Canada for the Toronto campus)

Nice-to-have Requirements

• Experience in youth athletics coaching, debate, camp leadership, drama, or after-school programs where you were directly responsible for motivating kids toward specific goals
• Personal history of high achievement (academic, athletic, or professional), such that holding others to a hard bar is a pattern, not a posture
• Storytelling and stage presence strong enough to hold a room of 12-year-olds for an hour without raising your voice
• Track record of turning disengaged or resistant students into active participants
