About the role

Traveling Guide — Texas Sports Academy

As a Traveling Guide with Texas Sports Academy, you split your day between two things: in the morning, you guide our online-school student-athletes through their mastery-based academic work — making sure every kid hits their daily goals in the software. In the afternoon, you run live, in-person sports training with our kids at the facilities, parks or other local training sites.

What you will be doing

  • Running the morning virtual block with online-school student-athletes: monitoring their adaptive learning dashboards, holding 1:1 check-ins, and pushing them to hit 100% of their weekly academic goals.
  • Leading the afternoon in-person training block for student-athletes ages 10–18 with high energy and clear standards.
  • Mentoring a cohort of 10–20 student-athletes across both halves of the day, on screen in the morning and on the field in the afternoon.
  • Communicating with parents every week on academic progress, athletic progress, and character development.
  • Representing Texas Sports Academy at community events, recruiting visits, and partnership appearances in Texas markets.

What you will NOT be doing

  • Delivering traditional academic lectures or teaching content — core academics are handled by mastery-based software in the morning block; your job is accountability, not instruction.
  • Writing curriculum or building training programs from scratch — our frameworks are already built; you bring them to life.
  • Managing admissions, tuition, or parent operations — program leads own those so you can focus on students.
  • Coaching a single sport only — afternoon training works across sports and age groups, not as a sport-specific head coach.
  • Sitting behind a desk the whole day — your day is split between a virtual session in the morning and live training in the afternoon.

Key responsibilities

  • Ensure every student-athlete in your cohort hits 100% of their academic goals in the adaptive software every week.
  • Create a high-standards, distraction-free environment across both the virtual morning block and the in-person afternoon training block.
  • Build genuine relationships with kids so they accept coaching through resistance, fatigue, and self-doubt — whether on a Zoom or a field.
  • Partner with academic staff so the morning academic block and afternoon athletic development actually reinforce each other.
