Director of Learning Science — 2 Hour Learning (Remote) – $400,000/year USD
We’re looking for an experienced Director of Learning Science to lead our academic strategy and ensure rapid, mastery‑based learning outcomes for students worldwide.
• 2 Hour Learning operates a system where students achieve learning outcomes twice as quickly in only two hours per day. Mastery‑based progression, AI‑driven tutoring, and a fundamental redesign of traditional classrooms produce these results. We now need a leader to align execution across varied school implementations, elevate academic leadership standards, and serve as the public authority for a movement rooted in evidence‑based learning science.
What You’ll Be Doing
Develop academic structures that convert learning science into actionable direction for curriculum design, student motivation frameworks, and application architecture.
Conduct execution reviews with Heads of Academics to maintain alignment, accountability, and consistent delivery across school teams.
Analyze data, conduct interviews, and perform observations to produce academic ecosystem assessments that identify critical obstacles to accelerated learning and recommend targeted solutions.
Ensure strategic coherence through planning cycles, feedback mechanisms, and progress monitoring focused on student learning objectives.
Serve as the senior representative of 2 Hour Learning in high‑stakes forums, including keynote presentations and engagements with Ministries of Education, to influence global perspectives on educational models.
What You Won’t Be Doing
Working on disconnected curriculum initiatives that fail to produce systemic impact.
Producing theoretical research disconnected from measurable student outcomes or operational implementation.
Transferring accountability for performance to middle management or external consultants.
Relying on institutional prestige or theoretical frameworks to convince skeptical audiences.
Basic Requirements
Advanced degree (Master’s or Ph.D.) in Learning Science, Educational Psychology, Instructional Design, or a related field.
7+ years leading academic or EdTech teams with evidence of exceptional learning outcomes.
Proven experience applying AI or technology to accelerate learning.
Track record of public thought leadership such as media, keynotes, books, or advising.
Strong performance‑management skills with the ability to hold elite peers to a high bar.
Fluent in interpreting data to diagnose learning issues and direct interventions.
Comfortable engaging directly with students, parents, and school leaders.
Nice‑to‑have Requirements
Founded or led an innovative school model, lab school, or high‑performing EdTech venture.
Experience navigating cultural, political, or international education contexts.
Deep familiarity with Bloom’s 2 Sigma research and other mastery‑learning frameworks.
About 2 Hour Learning Education is broken, but 2 Hour Learning is proving it doesn’t have to be. We’re tearing down the outdated one‑size‑fits‑all model and replacing it with AI‑driven personalized learning that helps kids master academics in just two hours a day. With students consistently ranking in the top 1–2 % nationally and the top 20 % achieving an astonishing 6.5× growth, we prove that smarter learning is possible.
Working with Us This is a full‑time, long‑term position (40 hours per week). The role is immediately available and requires entering into an independent contractor agreement with Crossover as a Contractor of Record. The compensation level is $200 USD/hour, which equates to $400 000 USD per year assuming 40 hours per week and 50 weeks per year. Payment is weekly.
