Welcome to Personal Finance
My name Rajvi and I am a finance teacher for Explorer Hop. Throughout the next week, I will be guiding your child on how to start their personal finance journey in a balanced and healthy way. The purpose of this course is to teach children to manage their money through budgeting, savings techniques, paying taxes and several other concepts.
After each class, I will post what the children did in the class, what the next class is about and homework for the children to complete before next class.
