What You Will Be Doing
- Conducting focused 1:1 motivational sessions in which you convert your competitive discipline into concrete, practical coaching techniques
- Directing dynamic morning assemblies that activate the full student community
- Leading interactive life skills workshops where you guide students through applied exercises in resilience, leadership, and goal achievement
- Overseeing structured afternoon athletic training sessions that embody championship principles: crafting drills, demanding effort, refining technique, and instilling grit and collaboration through athletic practice (not merely monitoring activity)
- Actively connecting with each student across the day: moving through spaces during independent study periods, stepping in to inspire when a student encounters difficulty, and generating instructional moments that spark breakthrough performance
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Observing from the perimeter as a passive presence: this position is not symbolic. You’re actively involved, leading sessions, and making real-time interventions.
- Delivering conventional academic instruction or adhering to a set curriculum: students engage with content through adaptive digital platforms. Your function is life coaching, motivation, and teaching transferable skills through athletics and personal mentorship.
