Some Feedbacks
What people are saying
"Group activities were much more fun with guest speaker. This opened my eye to newer ways to learn about consumer education. It prepared me as young adults about getting my first job, car, and credit.” AND "I liked the speaker that visited on Fridays. It was great idea to learn important topics with fund activities. Doing the activities made us more focused and we learned more."
“The inmates at the Joint Regional Confinement Facility are also very grateful for the financial class that Ms McGarry has been teaching. Her “Moneytalk” manuals are well organized and quite comprehensive. She is providing financial tools to inmates that are helping them build strong financial foundations. Because of Ms McGarry’s work, the financial literacy of our inmates has increased dramatically. Therefore, her work will have an impact on reducing our inmate recidivism rate.”
“Since taking this class I have been able to almost triple
my income which has been very rewarding for my family
and I. Plus I have been able to to decrease my debt by a good amount. Still moving forward to increase my income and become debt free. I found that I have gained more
self respect than when I started the program.”
“My goals for students was to help them to dream, to set goals, to give them hope and help them believe that success is possible with determination, effort and educational opportunities made available to them. Teresa and MoneyTalk helped to make this possible by engaging students in learning about finances and budgeting in ways that were practical and fun. Her hands-on and interactive approach got students’ attention more than our typical classroom learning approach. Her approach to problem solving helped me to be a better teacher.”
