青少年企業家+商業產品、定價、行銷+更多

This semi-private class (maximum 2 learners) explores the elements of a business plan through short lectures and student interaction.  Topics include marketing, product vs service, selling online or IRL, funding your business, and more!  

Any level of business experience/interest welcome - you do not need to have a business to join class!  Learners can bring questions about business ideas, for feedback or suggested resources, or they can just come ready to learn.  This class is very interactive, but all types of learners are welcome, and students are encouraged to advocate for how they learn best.  No supplies needed.  

This class is a jump start conversation and will not teach learners "how" to start a business but rather the topics businesses need to explore.  If you are looking for a more in-depth business planning class, I offer multi-day classes on crafting a business plan, a self paced business class, a semester-long business exploration class, as well as 1:1 support.

Learners - even teens - need space to wiggle and be silly.  I try to be flexible and understand that everyone learns differently.  It's also my responsibility to have a classroom that's not super distracting, as this can impact learning as well.  These classroom guidelines help us all start from the same page, and keep class flowing well!
1)  Video on or off (after verification)!  Discussions can be verbal or in *on-topic* chats.
2)  Be respectful; don't interrupt; raise your (physical or digital) hand!  Don't intentionally distract other students (e.g. putting things directly in front of the camera)
3)  Because they can be quite distracting, this class does not allow video filters, avatars, or background changes (except blur).
4)  If necessary, I will move a disruptive student to the waiting room.  If appropriate, I will let them back in for another chance to stay in class respectfully.  If this occurs and you have questions, please reach out to Support.
5)  Any racist, homophobic, body shaming, violent or inappropriate language/images will result in removal from class.  If this happens, you may email outschool@support.com with any questions.  

A few other notes:
-  Please click your meeting link 2-3 minutes early so we can start class on time!  
-  Per OS policy, if there are no students in the classroom 10 minutes after class starts, I will log off and end class.  (If you're having tech issues trying to enter the classroom, just send a message or post in the classroom, so I know you are there!)
-  If you cannot attend, please let me know at least 24 hours before class starts, so I can transfer you to a different section (when possible).  When it might not be possible: if you ask for a transfer for a multiday class the day before it starts, and your transfer will result in the class dropping below the learner minimum, I may not be able to offer a transfer.  But if I can, I will!
-  Class recordings are not automatically shared; they will be made available when possible.  Please note, new OS policy is that a learner can't watch a video until they have attended class, unless they are a verified learner.
-  Learners are encouraged to advocate for how they would like to participate.  If your learner needs adult help (e.g. adult on screen, adult answers for child or facilitates answers, adult takes notes), please let me know in advance per OS parent guidance.
