Teacher to entrepreneur
You know education.
But can you make this knowledge bloom?
A practical programme for educators who want to turn their expertise, ideas, and experience into a real business. Do not leave education, thrive within it.
Why this exists
Teachers are burned out and leaving the professions but what do they do? They know how to teach but not how to build and lead. Let's change that.
A lot of talent in education never becomes anything outside one classroom, one school, or one job description.
I want to change that because if education is your calling, you shouldn't leave it.
What you can build
There's no single path.
Expert business
Consulting, training, workshops, coaching
Education product
Curriculum, materials, courses, frameworks, tools
Learning business
Tutoring, an academy, an after school programme
EdTech product
A platform, an app, an AI tool
Creator led business
A community, media, a membership
Social enterprise
Or something else entirely
The goal is to find what fits your skills, your market, and your ambitions.
What we will work on
From seed to bloom.
And the real question: is your idea actually worth building?
How it works
Four parts, one idea at the centre.
The platform
Short videos, readings, tasks, and templates for research, pricing, business models and launch.
Weekly live sessions
Once a week, online. Actual work on what you're building. Not generic Q&A.
Guest entrepreneurs
People who built businesses in education, on what actually happened. Not a polished founder story.
The community
Education professionals building alongside you. Collaborators, clients, partners.
What you should leave with
Something you can keep growing.

Who's behind this
About Emilia.
Educational quality shouldn't depend on improvisation. It should be built on systems that actually hold up.
This programme applies the same rigor to a different problem: how educators build something of their own.
No. 01
This is the founding cohort
The first group shapes what comes next.
But you're not joining a research experiment. You're joining to build something.
Who it's for
Anyone working in education.
Questions
A few you might have.
That's fine. Part of the programme is figuring out whether you even want to build something, and what.
No. Current teachers, former teachers, and other education professionals are all welcome.
At the moment, taking part in the first cohort is free of charge.
One live session a week, plus platform materials and work on your own idea between sessions.
After you apply, I will contact you and provide more details about the next steps.
