Immersive Text Content

Written and diligently researched by the Intertwined team, our text content focuses on what matters most - relevant information. With so many outdated textbooks and online resources seemingly promoting someone else’s product, our unbiased and objective approach immerses students in financial scenarios, ensuring that they’ll learn what they actually need for their financial futures.

Is this plagiarized? NO, Grammarly’s checker has us consistently below 8%, well below the accepted 15% level.

Interactive Graphics

Creatively and colorfully designed graphics highlight key financial topics important for student success. While our generation is notoriously known for a short attention span, Intertwined leverages the online platform to captivate audiences and drive student success.

Engaging Videos

Sometimes, we get tired of reading. With engaging videos embedded throughout the curriculum, students can watch licensed videos from John & Hank Green (yes, the famous brothers), Go Ponder, How S#it Works, and Robert Reich that enhance the financial learning experience.
