3 Resources Every Beginner Should Use to Learn Financial Modeling in 2025

If you’re learning financial modeling, you don’t need dozens of resources. These are three that are genuinely worth checking out — each for a different reason.

1 YouTube

Kenji Explains

Kenji’s videos are some of the easiest to digest I’ve come across. He comes across as a humble, patient teacher, and the engagement speaks for itself.

“The way you explain things is far better than 99% of the professors I had.”

In finance, a lot of education content can feel overly complicated. It doesn’t have to be that way — the best content is simple and clear.

2 Community

r/FinancialModeling

A well-moderated community with technical discussions, thoughtful engagement, and peers who are genuinely willing to share ideas and help answer questions.

3 Practice

Quantus Finance

I built Quantus on the belief that learning by doing is one of the most effective ways to master financial modeling. Think of it as a virtual coach guiding you step by step as you build models.

Practice drives real learning — far more than passively watching videos.
