Job Description

This role centers on coaching student‑athletes who need accountability and guidance — not traditional instruction. You won’t be writing lesson plans, grading assignments, or delivering content. Your focus is the coaching work that drives results: building trust, reinforcing accountability, and helping students break through self‑imposed barriers. Texas Sports Academy operates a virtual model where student‑athletes progress through self‑directed academic platforms while building life skills in parallel with athletic development. Your cohort meets with you weekly in virtual 1:1 and small‑group formats. You set priorities, maintain accountability structures, and identify disengagement early. The effectiveness of your sessions depends entirely on your presence and relationship‑building — not on what's displayed on screen. The work breaks into three areas: facilitation of coaching sessions that maintain student momentum, data‑driven intervention when progress indicators reveal gaps, and delivery of structured virtual workshops focused on mindset and life skills. This is a fully remote position located in Texas, with in‑person quarterly events held in Austin, Dallas, Houston, or San Antonio. If you’ve worked with students or athletes and found the most rewarding moments came when someone exceeded their own expectations, you may be a good fit. What You Will Be Doing Facilitating virtual 1:1 and small‑group coaching sessions that guide student‑athletes in setting priorities, maintaining accountability, and sustaining engagement Tracking progress data from learning platforms and spotting disengagement or performance gaps before they escape Taking direct action when a student begins to fall behind — recalibrating your method, restoring momentum, and guiding them back on track Delivering structured virtual workshops centered on mindset, life skills, and personal growth, where active engagement defines success Establishing trust with each student‑athlete so that accountability discussions are received as supportive, not punitive What You Won’t Be Doing Teaching curriculum or providing academic instruction — students use self‑directed apps; you focus on engagement and completion Creating lesson plans, grading work, or managing course structures Waiting for students to report issues — you monitor data and act proactively Facilitating passive sessions where attendance does not equal engagement Key Responsibilities Maintain engagement, academic progress, and life skills development among virtual student‑athletes, equipping them for success beyond the classroom.
