Jenny Matthews


Bonjour!  My name is Jennifer Matthews.  I graduated from Meredith College with a French degree and teaching certification.  After several years of teaching, I decided to stay home with my growing family.  I have been homeschooling my four children for the last eight years.  My faith is the foundation that keeps me going each day.  I accepted Christ as a young child and am continually learning more about who He is and His will for my life.  I am passionate about languages and other cultures.  I love opening these doors of the world to other children.

Personal Finance

GRADE LEVEL: 9th - 12th

Day/Time: Thursday; Period: 5

Course Description: FIN-912

 "Beyond Personal Finance is a clever approach to teaching about finances. It goes further into the details of personal financial planning and decision making than do most other high school courses, and it presents scenarios that are based on common life experiences and decisions. Teens are likely to find this very interesting. The decision choices and plot twists used in the course make it more fun while reflecting the variability and unpredictability of real life."
