Hi Learners and Parents! 
Thank you for checking out my Personal Finance for Teens Level 2 Class! I am thrilled to offer a more in depth course that navigates financial concepts as if we were taking them on in real life.

How is this course different that my other finance course: Personal Finance for Teens? 
1) This course is project based. Students will spend about half or more of each class taking a financial principle and applying it to a project. The goal of this class is to build financially prepared teenagers, ready to transition into adulthood with confidence. 


Ultimately, I want each student to: 
1) Discover the meanings of key financial principals that they will deal with as an adult.
2) Analyze some of life's biggest decisions, before they are staring at mountains of paperwork from a future employer, financial advisor, sales representative, etc.  
3) Develop a passion and interest for personal finance.
4) Feel empowered to expand their learning beyond the classroom and apply these lessons to their lives IMMEDIATELY!
