About

This course skips the heavy notes and dives straight into action. Students will use stock market simulators, run mock businesses, and explore real-world finance through games, challenges, and team-based projects. It’s built for freshmen and sophomores just starting out, but also scales up to juniors and seniors with deeper topics like investing, global economics, and business ethics. A hands-on, simulation-rich journey through money, markets, and business, built for high schoolers and college freshman, inspired by college-level insight.

Heya!!! My name's Jayden, and I go by Starfall and Akkanee, I am currently a Sophomore (10th Grader), in the state of Maryland, of the United States of America. I can support most topics within History/Social Studies, I can also provide a lot of material in extra-circulars/enrichment classes, I take too many of those every year. I take classes outside of school, and I am trying to somewhat end with at least 40 credits by the end of my Junior year.
