Class Experience

In this one-time class, learners discover the basics of entrepreneurship, the required skills needed to be a successful entrepreneur, and what business the learner can start based on their passions.

I will maintain the flow of the class by teaching from a PowerPoint presentation. Learners are encouraged to interact during the entire class while respecting others. Learners are encouraged to take notes.

There is no required experience or knowledge learners need.

💼Topics covered in this class are:
✔️Introductions and icebreaker
✔️What is an entrepreneur?
✔️What skills are needed to be a successful entrepreneur?
✔️What steps are needed to start a business legally?
✔️What activities are needed to run a business daily?
✔️Group discussion: learners share their business ideas!
✔️Interactive quiz on Kahoot

🫶🏾I prioritize safety, respect, inclusion, and fun during class.

Learning Goals

Learners should leave this class with a new business idea and be inspired to take the next steps to make their dream a reality.

Other Details

Parental Guidance

Each learner will use the third party tool, Kahoot to answer trivia questions during class discussion. A Kahoot account is not required if learners access Kahoot from a computer or mobile device. If the learner is accessing Kahoot from the Kahoot app, an account is required. I will share a direct link to the trivia questions at the beginning of class discussion with everyone.

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

 I have been a serial entrepreneur since childhood which I attribute to my family. As a child, my family noticed I enjoyed cleaning and organizing. My Grandmother and Uncle would pay me to clean and organize their homes.  Soon after that, I realized I could  make money doing what I was good at and what  I enjoy doing. 

In high school, I started my first official tutoring business. This business gave me the opportunity as a teenager to make money doing something I loved to do; teach, motivate, and support others.  After highschool, I studied Business Administration at the University of Maryland, College Park.

In 2018, I founded an after-school program in my hometown that  I closed at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, I have 12 years of corporate real estate and retail banking professional experience.
