As a former Investment Banker and certified Business Education Teacher, I love teaching Stock Marketing Investing! My experience in the industry gives me a deep knowledge of stock analysis and the process of buying and selling stocks. My students always enjoy playing the Stock Market Simulation and competing with me along with their classmates. This stock market class is fun and engaging and knowing how to invest is an important life skill. Investing responsibly in the stock market is the best way to grow savings and build cash reserves. That's why it's critical for young adults to learn how invest responsibly now, BEFORE they risk real money. Based on my extensive experience teaching this subject, I know how to make it interesting and memorable. I use video clips and engaging handouts to make the content easy to understand and remember. This class is interactive, not lecture based, so students will have the opportunity to discuss, share experiences, and ask questions. I will help students discover how current events effect stock prices so they are more interested the world around them.
As mentioned above, howthemarketworks.com is the simulation platform used by students to trade stocks. This is a free, educational platform available used by teachers and is appropriate for learners 5+ (see Sources section above for additional information). I will provide financial websites and news articles for students to utilize for company research and market news. The articles may include earnings and product announcements from companies and the the sites included are open to the public and without age restriction such as yahoo finance and google finance. If parents have access to the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, etc. online or in print, I encourage you to share these sources with your learners.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
All content is company, stock market, and economic based and is appropriate for all students.
The free, educational simulation platform students will use is howthemarketworks.com. It is utilized extensively by teachers in the US and Canada for students of all ages. After receiving instructions on registration and platform use in class, students will be logging into this platform on their own in between classes. Students will be using the simulation platform as much or as little as they want to trade stocks, follow the market movements, and review their profits and losses. When registering for a free account, students will need to create a user name and password. There is a privacy setting on the site which guarantees that no personal information is required by users. Students will not receive any direct emails/correspondence from the simulation platform.
