Overview
You've shaped a compelling academic vision and taken ownership of the results.
You've led decisively, not from the sidelines.
When it comes to learning science, you've moved beyond exploration—you've built systems that work, delivered measurable outcomes, and earned the credibility to share that story publicly.
If this describes your experience, 2 Hour Learning is seeking its academic leader.
2 Hour Learning has developed a system enabling students to learn at twice the conventional rate within two hours daily.
This performance stems from AI-driven tutoring, mastery-based advancement, and structural departures from traditional classroom design.
The outcomes speak for themselves.
We now require a leader capable of aligning execution across varied school environments, elevating academic standards, and serving as the authoritative voice for a movement anchored in validated learning science.
This role demands leadership, not theory.
You will control academic strategy in execution, establish rigorous standards, surface gaps in implementation, and develop high-performing teams to achieve concrete results.
Your work will bridge our scientific foundation with operational rigor and articulate the case for this approach on a global scale.
What You Will Be Doing
- Developing academic frameworks that convert learning science principles into actionable direction for curriculum development, motivation architecture, and application design.
- Conducting academic execution assessments with Heads of Academics to confirm alignment, accountability, and outcome delivery across school teams.
- Integrating data analysis, stakeholder interviews, and direct observation into comprehensive academic ecosystem evaluations that identify the most critical obstacles to accelerated learning and recommend targeted solutions.
- Ensuring strategic coherence through planning cycles, feedback mechanisms, and milestone management to sustain focus on student learning objectives.
- Serving as 2 Hour Learning's representative at senior levels—from keynote presentations to engagements with Ministries of Education—advancing systemic transformation in global education paradigms.
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Engaging in fragmented curriculum initiatives that fail to produce system-wide impact.
- Producing theoretical research disconnected from measurable student outcomes or operational execution.
- Transferring accountability for performance to mid-level managers or external consultants.
- Depending on institutional credibility or conceptual arguments to influence critical stakeholders.
Director Of Learning Strategy Key Responsibilities
Expand and refine 2 Hour Learning's validated academic model by harmonizing execution across multiple school sites, raising leadership benchmarks, and establishing yourself as the authoritative spokesperson for a movement founded on rigorous science and demonstrated outcomes.
Basic Requirements
- Advanced degree (Masters or Ph.D) in Learning Science, Educational Psychology, Instructional Design, or a related field
- At least 7 years in academic or EdTech leadership roles, leading a team of staff/employees (not an informal peer leader role, such as grade-level lead); you must have been responsible for hiring, monitoring performance, coaching, and making termination decisions
- Experience driving learning outcomes for students and upholding student performance standards
- Experience applying AI or emerging technologies to improve education, such as through personalized learning, adaptive learning, AI agents, etc.
- Experience managing academic teams of 50+ people (e.g., the teams you managed directly executed curriculum, instruction, or assessment)
- Experience interacting directly with students, teachers, or school leaders in a professional setting
