In this class, students will learn essential principles of personal finance with a focus on savings accounts. We will cover topics such as the purpose and benefits of savings accounts, setting savings goals, making deposits, and monitoring account activity. I will teach through a combination of presentations, hands-on activities, and discussions to cater to different learning styles. Presentations will include slides and video clips to illustrate key concepts and provide real-world examples. My teaching style is interactive, engaging, and student-centered. I believe in creating a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, sharing their thoughts, and actively participating in discussions and activities. Learners will have ample opportunities to interact with me throughout the class. Activities will include group discussions, collaborative problem-solving tasks, and interactive games. They will also have opportunities to ask questions and share their insights. Additionally, I will provide individual feedback and guidance to students to support their learning and growth.

1.Understanding Savings Accounts: Students will gain a thorough understanding of what savings accounts are, including their purpose, features, and benefits.
