    Student Success Stories
    Mark (Student at Teach Me Wall Street)

    Mark, a high school student, enrolled in Teach Me Wall Street finance boot camps, and went on to start his own successful stock market club at school. He taught like-minded peers everything he learned about investing, analyzing stock charts and trading.

    This activity, which demonstrates leadership, drive and initiative, was listed on Mark’s college application and helped him secure a spot in the Fall 2022 entering class at Cornell University, an Ivy League school.

    Shane (Attended Teach Me Wall Street)

    Shane, a sixth-grader from St. James, NY with a passion for finance, attended a Teach Me Wall Street boot camp to learn about trading and investing.

    With the knowledge, he took away, and some start-up cash from a pastoral associate at his local school, he invested in the stock market and earned enough money to buy a goat for an at-risk family in a rural mountain village of Haiti through the Haitian Health Foundation.

    He is reinvesting the remaining money for other charitable projects. Shane is an example of a middle school-aged child who exhibits the passion, initiative, skills, and character that colleges are looking for.

    Meet The Teacher

    Hi, I’m Annaline Dinkelmann!

    Twelve years ago, I left my Wall Street job and became a day trader. Then, in January 2008, I turned my passion for the stock market and business into a successful Wall Street walking tour business.

    People love getting a tour guide who has a background in the finance industry. Why? Well, because I’m able to successfully navigate the complicated world of finance and translate it in a way that students, parents and teachers understand.

    Due to COVID-19, many people stopped travelling to New York. So, at that time, I decided to take all my in-person classes, workshops and tours online…so you can now gain the same financial knowledge from the comfort of your home. 

    I invite you to join me live for one of our virtual classes for adults or students.

    (And don’t worry, should you wish to visit New York in the future, you’ll still be able to take one of our tours in-person.)

    Put Your High School Students Ahead in Competition

    With the ever-increasing competition for college admissions, it is now recommended that students explore areas of interest at an early age and start “preparing for college” upon entering high school.

    Many traditional and top-tier colleges have become “test optional” narrowing the odds for students who, in the past, would have relied heavily on their SAT and ACT scores to gain admittance.

    With the absence of these standardized test scores, admissions counselors, not wanting to look solely at high school grades as an objective measure of achievement, are now focusing more on a student’s interests and extracurricular activities, community involvement and accomplishments related to those interests.
