Welcome to "Money Matters 2" a thrilling and educational journey into the world of finance designed specifically for young minds! In this engaging class, I will explore various aspects of personal finance and empower your child to make informed decisions about money. Throughout the course, I will delve into real-life scenarios that kids can relate to making the learning experiences practical and relatable. By using interactive games and activities, I aim to create an enjoyable and dynamic environment that fosters curiosity and active participation. Over the span of 9 weeks, we will cover a wide range of topics including buying and using insurance, paying for health services, starting a business, investment, retirement, and more. Each week I will facilitate discussions to encourage students to share their thoughts, ask questions, and engage in meaningful conversations about money management. To further enhance the learning experience, I will incorporate cutting-edge educational tools like Nearpod allowing students to actively participate and test their knowledge through quizzes, polls, and interactive presentations. These resources ensure that the learning process remains exciting and enjoyable.

Teacher expertise and credentials
North Carolina Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
As an experienced educator with a passion for teaching and a strong background in elementary education, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the "Money Matters" finance literacy class. Over the course of 8 years I had the privilege of instructing students in kindergarten through third grade in a public-school setting where I honed my teaching skills and developed creative instructional approaches to engage young learners.
In addition to my public-school experience, I embarked on a rewarding journey as a homeschool parent. I successfully homeschooled my own boys from their pre-k years all the way up to fifth grade, providing them with a solid foundation and fostering a love for learning. This hands on experience has deepened my understanding of individualized instruction, differentiated learning, and the importance of tailoring lessons to meet the unique needs of each student.
