#105: How to teach personal finance to groups of kids
Join Josh and Amelie to discuss teaching personal finance to groups of kids!
Top takeaways:
- Do NOT take your presentation created for adults and just start using it for kids even if you add in a few memes and make it less complex.
- Do your research into what is applicable to the group (age, demographics, interests etc.)
- You probably won’t get clients out of it.
- Make it interactive and make sure there’s variety–very short lecture pieces.
- Expand your search for curriculum outside of personal finance–find good methodology for teaching your target age group.
- Manipulatives, games, and stories work well for almost all age groups.
- Think about what lessons you’re accidentally teaching.
