This is an introductory course into the world of financial decision making and financial literacy. Anyone can take course, but the target students are teens and high school students. Ideally you will take this course before graduating from high school. The course was created to help prepare teens and high schoolers for adult life which will require a foundational knowledge of finances and skills in financial decision making. This course can also be beneficial for immigrants or students coming the the USA. We will discuss things like how to open a bank account, the difference between gross and net income and debit card vs a credit card.
Lastly, I am a licensed real estate agent & a lot of the international students that take my courses end up coming to America. If you are looking to buy or sell a home in the United States, please reach out to me so I can help guide you in the buying/selling process!
