Effective teachers make a significant difference in the lives of their students, and the effects last for many generations. The knowledge gained by these pupils can easily be passed down to others , and don't forget that the knowledge gained by these teachers was also passed down to them by other teachers or tutors. Teachers play an important role in creating society's future through teaching and motivating the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and innovators.
If I had an opportunity to take up a subject to teach at a school I suppose I would pick the subject "Finance". Despite the fact that I am a student of engineering, I believe this topic is very vital and should be taught in every school. Most school administrations may not find it reasonable to include subjects like these in their curriculum.
Ordinarily, I would have chosen to tutor an engineering-related subject, but I think I like this better.
If I'm a teacher hired to tutor a school on finance, I would concentrate on personal finance more. You know, personal finance is significant for everyone, regardless of age, since it deals with handling money in a private capacity. It addresses issues like planning for retirement as well as setting a budget, investing,saving money etc. Knowing the value of managing one's personal finances is crucial, even for children in small grades.
However, given that many students lack the abilities and information essential to handle their money wisely, I would put a major focus on personal finance. As they enter adulthood, they might encounter difficulties like debt, living expenses, etc., and they might find it difficult to make decisions about their financial future without the right information and tools.
By teaching personal finance, I can help students build a strong foundation of financial literacy that they can use throughout their lives. Kids will learn how to make a budget, keep track of their spending, manage their money, learn to invest for both long and short term investment, how to save for the future and also their importance.
For example, for topics like budgeting, I would begin by emphasizing on the importance of setting a budget in order to assist students grasp the necessity of knowing where their money is going. I'd describe how to make a budget and how to differentiate between fixed expenses (like rent or mortgage payments) and variable expenses (such as groceries or entertainment). We would also talk about the 50/30/20 rule, which suggests that 50% of income should be allocated to basic necessities, like rent, transportation etc, 30% to desires, and 20% for savings and prolly to pay off debts. This would assist students better understand the concept of budgeting and to keep them on track.
Additionally, it would be a very good idea to encourage them to save. There is no specific age at which one should begin saving. We would talk about how important it is to save money for emergencies and long-term objectives, how to set savings goals like saving for a down payment on a house or car, etc., and the benefits of saving.
There are more financial topics to cover, such as creating investment goals, selecting the best investments, controlling spending, etc.
However , impacting knowledge about personal finance would enable students to take charge of their money and make wise choices for their future financial security. It's an important topic that could have a big short- and long-term impact on their lives.
Thank you for your time. Enjoy your day.
