Do you want to stop worrying about money?

English language teaching (ELT) is a hard-working industry not served well financially**.
Educators and creative types like us tend to get left behind when it comes to money and finance.
With no pension, some savings dwindling in a no-interest bank account, no hope of ever buying a house, inconsistent income and low pay to show for 20 years of teaching and writing, I was going to be working til I dropped — and that’s if I was lucky.
Then something clicked: money can make money.
All I had to do was learn to how to make it work for me.
Except I had no idea how to start.
But desperation is the mother of research, self-study, learning and self-improvement. Turns out growing money is something anyone can do, even on unspectacular earnings, meagre savings and with no knowledge of finance.
Once I started, my only regret was not having put my money to work years earlier.
With my accounts all set up and my money working for me, writing a course to teach what I’ve learned was the obvious next step. The result is the No-Stress Money Plan — all you need to know to get your money earning money for you.
** to put it extremely mildly

I’m Nicola and I’ll teach you how to put your money to work and give you the tools, knowledge and mindset to take charge of your finances without the help (and expense) of a financial advisor.
As an EFL teacher-turned-writer I know how to write great educational materials, and now I teach personal finance instead of grammar.
“Thanks so much for the first two sessions – really fabulous. I already feel a lot less panicky about investing, not because I know it all but because I feel like I’m starting to know what questions to ask. Sooooo helpful.”

On top of which, you will come away understanding why it’s a no-brainer to be investing your savings and have a clear set of options to choose from. Investing is a topic that many of us might suppose to be quite dry but Nicola is a very engaging teacher and I think it will surprise you how much you actually enjoy the course.”
