Part 1 of 4 This is the first 4 week section of a 4 part course. In this class, the student will learn how to determine their value and the value of their work. They will also learn how to price their work and negotiate for fair compensation. Students will have the opportunity to explore their unique skills and talents, understand the market demand for their services, and gain practical tools and tips to create a successful freelance business or become a more valuable employee. In this class students will cover different topics. Topics include, but are not limited to, identifying your unique value proposition, researching your market, understanding your costs, and negotiating a fair deal. By the end of this class, students will be equipped with the skills they need to evaluate their worth and understand how to price their work accordingly. They will also be able to negotiate a fair deal and understand how to build a successful freelance business. The flexible schedule (Recorded Flex Class) allows your learners to watch the pre-recorded videos and do them at a time that is FUN for them! You can also spend extra time on the topics your child is most interested in. Since this is a flex class with no live meetings, students can log in at a convenient time to complete the week's lesson. We will be going through each week as a group and I will post the lesson weekly (depending on which day you started). The videos will contain the information required to give students a good understanding of each topic and each one will include homework for the students to undertake during the week, as part of a project. After watching each video and completing the homework assignments, students will be provided with feedback and the specific next steps on how to improve or adapt. Time frame for the Week: Mondays - The teacher will post the information needed for the week. Students can submit questions. Tuesdays - Wednesday - The teacher can answer any questions pertaining to the topic of the week. The students will need to complete any homework assignments and answer any questions in the discussion. Thursday - Students need to have all tasks completed and uploaded in the classroom for teacher feedback and discussion. Students will discuss it among themselves. Friday - The teacher will provide feedback to the class and individual students. Saturday - Sunday - The teacher will be available to answer any questions that the students may have for the week or the next week. Please note: This course requires no prior experience.)
