Your teacher business, built for you.
The December Done-For-You program. We build your website and your offer, and you get all three of my guides for teachers. You keep teaching. We handle the setup.
You have the skills. You don't have the time.
Websites, payments, offers, tech. It's a lot when you're grading at 9 pm.
Your energy goes to your students and your family. A side business can't eat your weekends.
You don't need to be. That's exactly why this program is done for you.
We build it. You launch it.
A professional site that tells families who you are, what you offer, and how to work with you.
We turn what you already teach into something families can buy, whether that's tutoring, a program, or a Step Up provider service.
Mindset, setup, and launch. You'll understand every piece of what we build and can grow it on your own.
Turn your teaching skills into a business, and believe you can.
Setup, budget, income, and curriculum for a microschool or tutoring business.
A 6-guide launch kit: get approved, set up Facebook, get paid, promote, enroll families, and automate replies.

Hi, I'm Melba.
I'm a special education teacher and a proud mom of 4. In 2022, I was living paycheck to paycheck and only seeing my kids a few hours a day. I knew something had to change.
So I learned to build income online, one small step at a time. I'm Google AI Certified, and I call myself an AI translator, not an enthusiast. My job is to take the tech off your plate so you get more time, more options, and more control.
Last year, teachers and moms trusted me to build their business with them. This December, you can join them.

Simone B.Teacher
"I'm so thankful to have a mentor who genuinely cares and wants to see me succeed. Because of her, I'm learning, earning and becoming better every day."
Rhea AmbuatMom & Content Creator
"I appreciate everything I've learned through this experience. It has given me the confidence to step out of my comfort zone, embrace new challenges, and develop skills that continue to help me grow."
Rechel Q.Teacher
Apply for one of 10 spots
This is for teachers who are serious about launching. Answer honestly. There are no wrong answers, and it helps me see if this is the right fit for you. Scholarship requests are reviewed through this same form.
Questions
Do I need to be good with technology?
No. This is done for you. We build the tech, and the three guides walk you through how it all works so you're never lost.
Can I keep my teaching job?
Yes. I'm still a teacher myself, and I built my businesses alongside teaching. This program is made for working teachers and busy moms. You don't have to quit anything to start.
What's the investment?
It depends on what we build together. We'll go over it on your call, along with whether you qualify for a scholarship.
How do scholarships work?
A limited number are available for qualifying teachers. Choose the scholarship option in your application and we'll talk about it on your call.
What if all 10 spots fill?
Apply anyway. You'll be first to hear when the next round opens.
How does payment work? Do you offer refunds?
Payment details are shared only after we talk and you're accepted. You'll get a secure invoice or payment link. Pay in full, split it into monthly payments that line up with your paydays, or pay over time with Klarna, Afterpay, or PayPal Pay Later at checkout (subject to their approval). Your spot is confirmed when your first payment is received. All sales are final: because this program includes my personal time and custom work, payments are non-refundable once your spot is confirmed. If I'm unable to deliver the program, you'll receive a full refund. For payment plans, missed payments pause the work, and the full program fee remains due.
10 spots. December 1. Is one yours?
Start your applicationThis program is for serious teachers and moms who are ready to put in real effort. It is not a get-rich-quick scheme, and results are not guaranteed. Everything I share is advice based on my own experience building businesses while teaching and raising my kids. Your results depend on your own work and many factors outside anyone's control. Nothing on this page is financial, legal, or tax advice.
