Class Experience

Welcome to The Sports Card Collecting Class. My name is Lance Davis and I started collecting sports cards when I was eleven and that was a few decades ago. Although I have a ton of experience to share about this exciting hobby, I do not consider myself a "know-it-all", instead I like to share experiences and knowledge I have about collecting. In this class, learners will be introduced to the following topics: (1) What is Sports Card Collecting all about and why is now a great time to start, (2) The sports I mainly choose to collect and why I chose them, (3) Having a personal collection and selling for profit, (4) What is Graded cards and how do I get mine graded? (5) Several tips on where to find sports cards in these tough times. (6) Where can you find out prices on your cards? (7) And lastly, time permitting, there may be a some friendly Sports Trivia Questions for all to enjoy! This class is for anyone 8-18 so don't let the age range trick you. I make this where everyone can understand the Sports Card Collecting Hobby! 
I strongly encourage students to bring out 3 of their favorite cards to show and talk about during class. After you complete this class, please consider taking my Sports Cards Flipping for Profit class. It is an advanced class that will help you understand how to make money in the sports card business.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Liberty University
Hello everyone, my name is Lance Davis and my students call me “Mr. D”. I am happily married and have 3-boys including a set of twins. I have an Associate of Applied Science degree along with a Bachelor of Science degree both in Criminal Justice that I received from Liberty University. I am also going to be starting my Masters in Emergency Management in the Fall of 2024.

I was a full-time police officer for eighteen years until I decided to pursue my 2nd career of teaching, which I have done the last 8-years now. I didn't go very far from law enforcement as I am still certified and working as the School Resource Officer in the same building as I teach in. 

I have several passions other than teaching, which are: (1) Sports ⚾️ 🏈 🏀 and collecting Sports Cards since I was 11-years old, (2) Educating students and adults on financial issues (I received certification as a Certified Financial Master Coach through Ramsey Solutions) and (3) Being outdoors and enjoying family time on our farm.
 I have some parents ask me my teaching style and the best way I can explain it is this, I love to be thorough and make sure my students understand what I teach them, I also add humor in my teaching, which in turn almost always gets a positive reaction from my students. 

I don’t mean to offend anyone but a couple of my strict policies on Outschool is this: If you sign up for one of my classes and then fail to attend with no warning, or even let me know before class or just after the class, I have a NO REFUND POLICY, so please don't ask to transfer your students to another class 2-weeks later because you forgot or there was an emergency and you just thought about messaging me now. The same goes if you attend any part of my class, then I will not issue a refund because you were there and always have the option to watch the recording. If you aren't going to make it to class and need to transfer to another time, message me and let me know at least 8-hours before class starts and we will work something out. I have been burned too many times before with false excuses and this is time I set aside for a particular class. If you miss a class you signed up for, you are welcome to pay for that class once again, and attend. I really don’t mean for this to sound stern, but unfortunately, for a few, I have to be.

I am blessed to be able to enjoy both of the careers I set out to do at an early age and my hope for you in considering my classes is to learn and enjoy my classes as much as I love to teach them. Thank you for considering one or more of the variety of classes I have to choose from, and as always, if you ever have questions, please feel free to ask. See you in the Classroom :)
