Base pay range $200.00/hr - $200.00/hr
You've established a compelling academic vision in the past and taken full ownership of the results. You've led visibly, not from the sidelines. And in learning science, you're not an observer—you've created something tangible, delivered outcomes that validate its effectiveness, and earned the credibility to present that story publicly. If this describes you, 2 Hour Learning seeks its academic compass.
At 2 Hour Learning, we've developed a system in which students learn at twice the typical speed in only two hours each day. AI-driven tutoring, mastery-oriented progression, and a fundamental shift away from traditional classroom formats power these results. The outcomes speak for themselves. We now seek a leader who can align execution across varied school environments, elevate academic leadership standards, and serve as the public advocate for a movement rooted in rigorous learning science.
This is not a role centered on academic theory. It's a leadership imperative. You'll be accountable for academic strategy in practice, establish clear benchmarks, surface execution shortfalls, and guide high-performing teams toward measurable impact. You'll convert our scientific underpinnings into operational rigor and champion this model on a global stage.
What You Will Be Doing
Designing academic frameworks that apply learning science to inform curriculum development, motivation architecture, and application design.
Conducting academic execution reviews with Heads of Academics to confirm school teams are coordinated, accountable, and achieving outcomes.
Integrating data, stakeholder interviews, and direct observation into comprehensive academic ecosystem assessments that identify high-impact barriers to accelerated learning and recommend concrete interventions.
Ensuring strategic alignment via planning, continuous feedback, and milestone monitoring to sustain focus on student learning objectives.
Serving as the external representative of 2 Hour Learning at senior forums, including keynote addresses and engagements with Ministries of Education, advancing systemic transformation in global education paradigms.
What You Won’t Be Doing
Working on disconnected curriculum initiatives that fail to produce systemic impact.
Producing theoretical research detached from student outcomes or operational execution.
Passing off performance accountability to middle-tier managers or external consultants.
Depending on institutional credibility or abstract theory to win over critical stakeholders.
Director Of Academic Excellence Key Responsibilities Expand and strengthen 2 Hour Learning’s validated academic model by aligning execution across school sites, raising leadership performance expectations, and emerging as the authoritative public voice of a movement built on rigorous science and demonstrated results.
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
