This self-paced class consists of a pre-recorded lesson video (<60 minutes) and a brief lesson quiz and discussion homework (5 to 15 minutes). For one week, learners can share questions and comments on the classroom page. I respond within 24 hours. The lesson slides, which include answers to in-lesson questions, answers to the lesson quiz, and a detailed glossary, will be posted after one week. Homework and class participation are optional. The quiz is not graded.

*************************************************************************************

Please review the lesson topics for the [Self-Paced] Stock Investing: Understanding Stock Information (Ages 15 to 18) class in the syllabus section prior to enrolling.

I teach using lesson slides and frequently introduce questions to reinforce learner knowledge and critical thinking. There will be a case study to illustrate how to read and interpret stock movements. Although a segment of investors relies on charts and technical analysis to make their investing decisions, the case study and class provide several perspectives. My teaching philosophy is to help learners understand why the information is important and how it can be used (sometimes in multiple ways). With the knowledge from this class, learners are better prepared to research stocks and continue their studies in stock investing. Learners will benefit from my extensive working experience and educational background in the financial industry. You can find this information under the teacher expertise section below or on my profile page.

A list of my Outschool classes is available towards the end of both my course and teacher intro videos.
