What is a character coach?

A Character Coach is a professional who helps individuals, especially athletes or students, develop positive character traits such as integrity, responsibility, and teamwork. They work to instill values, support personal growth, and often collaborate with coaches, teachers, or organizations to create a positive culture. Character Coaches may lead workshops, provide one-on-one mentoring, and design programs that focus on social and emotional learning. Their goal is to help people become well-rounded individuals both on and off the field.

What are some common challenges a character coach faces when working with diverse groups of students or athletes?

Character Coaches often encounter the challenge of addressing varying backgrounds, values, and personalities within a group. Fostering trust and open communication is key, as individuals may respond differently to feedback or character-building exercises. Successfully navigating these differences requires adaptability and strong interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to create inclusive programs that resonate with everyone. Working closely with other staff, such as teachers or athletic coaches, also helps ensure consistent messaging and support.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a character coach, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Character Coach, you need a background in psychology, education, or counseling, along with expertise in character development frameworks and youth mentorship. Familiarity with assessment tools, curriculum design software, and certification in coaching or counseling is often required. Outstanding interpersonal skills, empathy, and motivational abilities help build trust and inspire growth in clients or students. These skills and qualifications are essential for effectively guiding individuals in developing positive values and resilient mindsets.

What is the difference between Character Coach vs Acting Coach?

AspectCharacter CoachActing Coach
CredentialsOften requires acting or theater background, certifications varyTypically requires acting experience, acting coaching certifications
Work EnvironmentFilm, TV, theater productions, training actors for specific rolesTheater companies, film sets, acting schools, individual coaching
Industry UsageUsed in entertainment industry to develop character authenticityUsed broadly in acting training, auditions, performance improvement

While both roles focus on improving performance, a Character Coach specializes in helping actors develop specific character traits and authenticity for roles, often working closely on character backstory and mannerisms. An Acting Coach provides broader acting technique training, focusing on overall performance skills. The two roles often overlap but serve different primary purposes within the entertainment industry.

KidStrong Coach
Position Type: Part-Time

FLSA Status: Non-Exempt
Compensation: $16-$20/hr (based on experience and certification level)
Build Strong, Confident, High-Character Kids - That's the Job
At KidStrong, our mission is simple: help kids win at life. We build strong, confident, high-character kids through a science-based curriculum that develops the whole child - Brain, Body, and Character. And it's our coaches who make that happen.
A KidStrong class should be the best part of a kid's day. That's not the curriculum talking - that's you. You're the reason a shy three-year-old raises their hand first. You're the one who helps parents see their kid's progress and how the program fits their goals. The work is active, visible, and meaningful every single day.
If you bring high energy, a genuine love for kids, and you thrive in front of a group - keep reading.
Watch our mission in action! ▶
What You'll Do
Coach
  • Deliver KidStrong's curriculum to kids ages crawling-11 in engaging, high-energy 45-minute classes (up to 24 hours/week)
  • Develop Brain, Physical, and Character in every session - not just athletic skills
  • Physically demonstrate movements, support proper technique, and keep every kid safe and progressing
  • Build authentic relationships by counting with and mentoring kids and families before, during, and after class
  • Guide parents through the flow of class - they're part of the experience too
  • Understand and communicate the why behind our curriculum clearly and confidently

Support Your Center
  • Use the KidStrong Coach App to record attendance, awards, and student data
  • Communicate with your team professionally in person and via Slack
  • Review weekly programming to prepare in advance of classes
  • Complete required certifications and ongoing training
  • Support KidStrong Camps during school breaks (Winter, Spring, Summer)
  • Support KidStrong parties and PNO events
  • Utilize all required systems and processes to keep accurate record of member information and deliver amazing trial and member experiences

What We're Looking For
Must-haves:
  • A genuine passion for working with kids - non-negotiable
  • High energy, strong presence, and the ability to hold a room of kids and parents
  • Positive, motivating communication style - you're comfortable speaking with both kids and caregivers
  • Minimum 20 hours/week availability, including evenings and/or weekends
  • CPR/AED certified (or willing to obtain before first class)
  • Physically active - you'll cover miles on the floor, demonstrate movements, and move equipment up to 50 lbs per shift

Strongly preferred:
  • Athletic or coaching background, ideally with kids ages crawling-11
  • Experience in PE, child development, athletic training, pediatric OT/PT, or a related field
  • Comfort having real conversations with parents about their child's progress

Performer - You're engaging, fun, and naturally energizing. Class is your arena.
Teacher - You don't just demonstrate; you explain the why so it sticks with kids and parents alike.
Mentor - You invest in the kids you coach and the teammates beside you.
Student - You're coachable, curious, and see every rep as a chance to get better.
