Who can join, and how do sessions work?

Years 7–13 (ages 11–18). Students join small groups by knowledge and level. Beginners start together, whatever their year group, and progress through Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced, with two chapters at each level. Sessions run in person at Gold and Diamond Park, Dubai, for 60 minutes each week. The number of sessions follows the weeks in the IMI term calendar, with platform work between lessons.

What do the fees include?

AED 300 per session, or AED 250 each for siblings, plus 5% VAT. Fees are billed termly by the number of sessions; mid-term joiners pay only for the sessions remaining. All sessions, materials and full platform access are included. Access continues for the duration of enrolment.

How does the app work? Is real money used?

Our in-house platform includes lessons, interactive activities and tools, homework, progress tracking and a simulated trading portfolio. No real money is used and no bank or brokerage accounts are opened. Students practise with simulated funds and real market data. Students and parents can view lessons, activities, homework, portfolio performance and progress live. Bring a smartphone, tablet or computer to each session; the platform works on iOS, Android and web. IMI creates the student’s account, with parental consent covered by the enrolment terms.

What if a session is missed or enrolment changes?

Students catch up through the matching platform lessons, with drop-in support from their tutor. Missed sessions are not refunded. Fees are billed termly, and standard IMI terms apply to enrolment changes and cancellations.

Our financial literacy platform — developed in-house at Improve ME Institute.

For decisions beyond school

Give money more meaning.

Your child does not need a finance background. They need clear explanations, space to ask questions and opportunities to practise making choices.

“Where do we start?”

Begin with familiar choices: needs, wants, saving and what money can do. Build understanding one idea at a time.

“Will it hold their attention?”

Short app activities, choice challenges and real-world missions turn ideas into decisions students can discuss with an expert.

“What about investment risk?”

Students learn to question promises, recognise risk and explain their reasoning. Risk awareness is part of the curriculum throughout.

Sample activity
