Free parent guide for families of college-bound teens in grades 9 to 12
Get the Free Parent Guide That Shows How Stock Investing Makes Your Teen Stand Out at the Most Selective Schools
Dartmouth, Yale, Brown, Harvard, Cornell, and Stanford require test scores again, so nearly every top applicant now sends the same grades and scores. Admissions officers look at activities to tell students apart. This free guide shows you how investing gives your teen an activity few other applicants have, and a skill they will use for life.

Meet your guide
Meet Annaline Dinkelmann, Founder of Teach Me Wall Street
Annaline spent ten years at Morgan Stanley, with an office across the street from the New York Stock Exchange. She also gave walking tours of Wall Street, and during the 2008 financial crisis, reporters came to her when they needed the markets explained.
For the last 15 years, she has taught teenagers to invest. In her small, live classes on Zoom, teens learn to research companies, read stock charts, and trade with a written plan using virtual money, so no real money is at risk.
Annaline does not recommend stocks. She teaches teens how the market works so they can make their own decisions for the rest of their lives.
