Overview
Facilitador Educativo, Alpha – $100,000/year USD Jobs in San Juan-Carolina Area at Crossover
Title: Facilitador Educativo, Alpha – $100,000/year USD
Company: Crossover
Location: San Juan-Carolina Area
- Position based on-site at Alpha School's campus in Dorado, Puerto Rico
- Compensation of $100,000 annually ($50/hour, 40 hours weekly), with weekly pay cycles
- Formal teaching credential not required; Spanish language proficiency is beneficial
The most meaningful support you can offer a student who achieves 99% of their objective is to insist the work is not yet complete. If that philosophy feels uncomfortable, this position will not suit you. If it energizes you because maintaining the standard demonstrates your confidence in their potential, continue reading.
Alpha School operates on a 2 Hour Learning framework: students in grades K-8 complete a full day's worth of academics in approximately two hours using adaptive learning platforms. There are no lectures. No traditional textbooks. Your responsibility is the element technology cannot deliver — guiding students through essential life competencies such as public speaking, sustained attention, collaboration, and constructive feedback exchange.
Sixty percent of your time will center on individualized coaching: reviewing learning platform dashboards and Coachbot data, identifying where a third-grader struggles with fractions or a fifth-grader resists reading assignments, then helping them break through. The remaining forty percent involves facilitating interactive, hour-long sessions that resemble improv training more than conventional instruction. All students must demonstrate mastery via Test2Pass evaluations before progression.
This position includes a growth trajectory. You'll manage a dedicated cohort and internalize Alpha's methodology during your first year. Demonstrate consistent ability to guide every student toward 100% goal attainment while maintaining strong satisfaction metrics, and advancement opportunities emerge: Lead Guide, then Campus Lead (overseeing an entire school). You'll witness a child who avoided eye contact in September confidently present to a room full of parents by spring.
Apply if you believe that seating 30 children in rows to listen passively to one adult underestimates what children are capable of achieving.
What You Will Be Doing
- Guiding K-8 students individually and in small groups through adaptive learning platforms, leveraging Coachbot analytics and performance dashboards to identify learning obstacles and their root causes
- Implementing Alpha's motivation systems (leaderboards, reward structures, weekly objective-setting) to ensure every student progresses at the target rate
- Facilitating hour-long, experiential life-skills sessions focused on public speaking, focus management, teamwork, and feedback literacy (project-driven and participatory, never lecture-based)
- Conducting Test2Pass mastery evaluations and maintaining standards: students may not advance until they demonstrate genuine comprehension
- Establishing trust relationships with students so rigorous accountability is experienced as empowering rather than discouraging
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Delivering lectures or traditional subject-matter instruction (core academic content is learned through adaptive applications, not direct teaching)
- Creating original lesson plans — Alpha supplies curriculum frameworks and implementation guides; you animate them with presence and narrative skill
- Evaluating homework assignments or preparing students for standardized examinations; these elements are absent from this model
- Handling family communications or operational logistics — Campus Leads manage those areas, allowing you to concentrate fully on your cohort
- Providing passive supervision while students work on devices; active coaching is the core function of this role
