Beginner Level
This course will cover 10 topics of an Introduce to Personal Finance and be delivered by Zoom Meetings using text, video and discussion with students. Each topic will be independent so if a student misses a class they will have no problem continuing with the balance of the class. My teaching style is informal and interactive. Real world examples will be discussed with the students to bring clarity and relevance to the course material. Feedback from students will be encouraged to ensure they can ask questions during a class to clarify a particular topic.
