As a tenured, certified Business Teacher I taught personal finance and classes on credit card use to tweens.  I know that many of these students do not understand the basics of credit cards, debit cards, and gift cards.  They will learn that interest is charged on credit card loans.  This lack of knowledge is unfortunate and can likely lead to young people making poor financial decisions and getting deep into debt.  That's why it's critical for tweens to learn how to save, borrow, and use credit cards responsibly BEFORE they use a parental credit card or get one of their own.

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.
