  • Serving as the principal representative of 2 Hour Learning in high stakes contexts, including keynote presentations and meetings with Ministries of Education.

What You Won’t Be Doing

  • Experience managing academic teams of 50+ people
  • Experience interacting directly with students, teachers, or school leaders in a professional setting
