Class Experience

In this engaging and practical online class, teens will dive into the exciting world of investing and long-term financial planning. They will explore the basics of stocks, compound interest, and the importance of saving for the future. Through interactive lessons and activities, students will learn to differentiate between short-term and long-term investments while gaining valuable financial planning skills for major life events, such as buying a car or saving for college.

Each session will offer a mix of theory and practice, including a mock stock market game where learners can invest virtual money, track their progress, and understand the impact of financial decisions over time. Additionally, students will create personalized financial plans for their future milestones, equipping them with the tools to set and achieve financial goals in real life.


BULLYING
_________

At Miss Brandy's Fun and Learning Academy, we’re all about creating a safe and welcoming space for every learner! Our strict NO BULLYING rule reflects our commitment to kindness and respect among classmates.

Here’s how we handle behavior issues in a friendly way:

Verbal Warning: If a student needs a gentle reminder about our expectations, we’ll start with a friendly verbal warning.

Waiting Room/Break Room: If the behavior continues, the student might spend a little time in a waiting or break room. During this time, the teacher will chat with them to understand what’s going on and help them get back on track before returning to class.

Removal from Class: If issues persist, we may need to remove the student from class. Unfortunately, no refunds can be issued in this case.

We believe in giving everyone a chance to learn and grow, and together, we can ensure our academy remains a joyful place for all!
