Welcome to Financial Literacy - Understanding Financial Statements! In this 4-week course that takes place twice weekly, we will cover the fundamentals of understanding financial statements and develop our financial literacy. The first 4 lessons will focus on a different part of the financial statements, and the next 4 weeks will dive deeper into the notes and understanding the numbers in more detail. Classes will be interactive with students encouraged to ask questions. Where possible, I will bring in real world examples to bring depth and understanding to the learning material.
