Why this role exists
We are scaling Kidspreneurship, an entrepreneurial mindset program for K12. We need someone who can design excellent teacher-training lesson plans, deliver engaging training, and support teachers throughout the implementation process across different countries and curricula. If you are a builder, a doer, and a hustler who loves turning ideas into classroom impact, you will feel at home.
What you will do
Design Curriculum
- Architect modular teacher-training lesson plans (beginner ? advanced), including session flows, facilitator guides, slide decks, activities, assessments, and rubrics.
- Localize content for different school contexts (US/UK/CBSE/IB/IGCSE, etc.) while preserving the core outcomes.
- Create plug-and-play resource packs: project briefs, AI-assisted rubrics, checklists, reflection templates, classroom posters, and micro-learning videos.
- Develop content for students.
- Iterate fast, and improve teacher training regularly.
Training Delivery
- Run live virtual and on-site teacher trainings (demo lessons, facilitation techniques, classroom management for project-based learning).
- Coach teachers in entrepreneurial pedagogy (problem-finding, design thinking, creativity, prototyping, pitching, reflection).
- Model best-practice lessons for K12; record exemplars for our platform.
Implementation & School Success
- Own school onboarding: timelines, readiness checklists, tech setup, and success criteria.
- Provide rigorous ongoing support: 1:1 coaching, feedback on student projects, and intervention plans for classes that are behind.
- Track completion, engagement, and learning outcomes; publish school-level reports with insights and recommendations.
- Coordinate across time zones; manage a global calendar of trainings, showcases, and review cycles.
Ops & Quality
- Build SOPs for training, QA rubrics for sessions, and a resource library that teachers actually use.
- Capture and share best practices; turn field learnings into repeatable playbooks.
- Partner with Product/Content to prioritize feature and content requests from schools.
You will thrive if you have
- 37+ years in teacher training, instructional design, or school implementation (EdTech, nonprofits, or networks of schools).
- Demonstrated mastery of K12 curriculum (design thinking, problem-solving, creativity, financial & ethical awareness, pitching, reflection).
- Strong instructional design chops: backwards design, clear outcomes, formative checks, and authentic assessments.
- Facilitation experience: you can engage mixed-experience cohorts, handle live Q&A, and model classroom routines.
- Operational hustle: you'll juggle multiple schools across time zones and sometimes over the weekends.
- Data comfort: dashboards, basic analytics, and using insights to improve training and classroom practice.
Nice to have
- Experience aligning content to IB/ 21st-century skills frameworks.
- Familiarity with AI-supported assessment and project-based learning at scale.
- Prior work in a high-growth startup or school network.
- Ability to run showcase events: student pitch days, exhibitions, and community partnerships.
What we need
- Creativity in DNA
- Owner mindset: You spot gaps and fix them without waiting.
- You listen to classrooms and let real teacher/student needs steer priorities.
- Remote-first with global coordination; occasional travel for key school launches, showcases, or partner events.
- Rapid scope growth as we scale across regions.
- Opportunity to shape a category-defining K12 entrepreneurship program.
Success metrics (first 612 months)
