In this class, we will discuss how to make and keep a budget. We will be discussing: Week 1: What is a budget? Week 2: What is debt? How do we avoid it? Week 3: Retirement and investments Week 4: Budgeting exercise Each lesson will be taught from a debt-free perspective. At the end of the class, students will also have an opportunity to engage in a budgeting exercise where they will be randomly assigned a character profile, complete with an occupation, debt amount, salary, and mortgage payment. Students will then have to create a budget based on their profile and adjust their budget as different obstacles enter their lives. We will spend discussing the decisions everyone made and how they impacted their budget. Budget out some time for this class!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Whitney and I am so excited to have the opportunity to share my expertise with you! I have a Bachelors degree from Florida State University, and I have over 10 years of teaching experience. I have taught formally in a preschool classroom, and I currently teach ESL online. I have also taught horseback riding, rowing, canning, Sunday school, and I look forward to sharing my classroom with you!
I believe that learning should be FUN! Some times a bit messy, maybe a bit silly, but always full of smiles and laughter. I believe that we remember what we learn best when we remember the experience as a positive one. I also believe that life can be one of the greatest educators. I love to bring real life examples into my classes.
When I am not spending with my family and dogs, I enjoy teaching sewing classes, budgeting classes, science, English, art, and having a fun and educational story time for young learners. Often times, I will bring my dogs to class as teaching tools!
Thank you for viewing my profile, and I hope to see you in class soon!
