I started off as a high school Science teacher. I loved what I did and the students I taught. However, the system I taught in was not conducive to real learning, and I got burned out! I was tired of missing out on the major life happenings of my family and sot an alternative to my then 9-5+.
Around that same time, I learned about the Forex Market. I honestly never pictured myself as the type that would and could learn about this industry mainly because I was never really taught about it and what I was able to observe; it wasn’t geared towards people who looked like me.
Trying to learn this skillset proved to be extremely challenging. When it was “taught,” it was made to be unnecessarily complicated. The “mentors and teachers,” seemed to like the sound of their own voice more than they liked teaching.
It was at that point that I realized most other programs are not focused on MASTERY but on pushing content. I understand the psychology of learning and educating and have a professional background in this space. I have learned that most programs and mentors have a very rapid-paced lecture style that lacks the intimacy needed to nurture the student while they master the skill. For many, this style does not meet the learner where they are. One of my favorite sayings to my students, which sums up my philosophy of teaching, is:
“There is a difference between a lecturer and educator – with a lecturer – you better come prepared, or you’ll get lost, with an educator – you can come lost, and you’ll get prepared.”

faq for adaeze duncan
I have been a trader since 2015.
I learned trading in a very complicated way. I started out trying to try my luck using “Google and YouTube University.” However, that was lonely and difficult. I joined a company where I was told I would learn how to trade, but it was more focused on building (an MLM company). My team was not really invested in customers learning. I went back to the Google and YouTube streets, along with some great books. I finally paid for a mentor which helped speed up my process. It was a long expensive (because I lost so much money) road… but in the end, it was worth it.
I would consider myself a day and swing trader. It really depends on my schedule. I prefer to day trade when my schedule is more forgiving. However I love swing trading as well. It is perfect for my busy life with kids, and running a business.
Well for one, I am a teacher first! I was a teacher for over 15+ years. That happens to be my passion. I remember how it felt learning to trade. It was very unnecessarily complicated. There wasn’t a real since of community or support. I felt like I was on my own. Once I learned how to trade, naturally I wanted to do what I was also passionate about. The two mix very well. It made since to teach people a skill that I learned. That’s like saying to a basketball player if you are such a good baller, why do you coach it? There is always room for your passions! Especially when they overlap.
My favorite time frames are between the Hour and the Weekly. When I am day trading I spend more time between the daily and the hourly chart. When I a swing trading, I spend more time between the 4 hour and weekly charts. Except on entry, I like to enter on the hourly.
My school is different from other programs because for one it is a school. Many programs do not offer the amount of support that my school offers in one setting. We are big on community and intentionally work to make sure our students feel connected. We also are the only school to have curriculum, especially curriculum that was put together by a liscenced educator. All of our courses have some form of text to accompany it in order to keep the material structured. Finally, we are the only platform that offers our students a 12 month membership to the whole school. Students are welcome to continue and many do. In our school we offer, live trainings, live community groups, biweekly virtual school assemblies. We get it in here at FMI! I could go on and on about what we offer but you may want to hop on the masterclass to learn more!
I will be honest, when life gets busy I have to take breaks from trading. This is exactly the advice I would give to anyone of my students. You never actively trade when you cannot commit to the outcomes. That’s a good way to lose money.
I also enjoy swing trading or taking more long term trades. I even switch to more long term/short term investment strategies. All of these things I learned because I became a trader :).
