Read Praise From Teachers and Students
“I absolutely love using Pacific NW’s money curriculum and so do the kids! The bonus is PNWFCU’s teacher on staff. Kristin will come help you learn how to make teaching about money easy. She helped me develop such a fun plan to seamlessly weave it into our existing curriculum in a way that kids are having fun and learning tons. I’m two years into prioritizing my student’s knowledge of money by using PNWFCU’s curriculum – now that I can confidently teach this subject, I’ll never go another year without teaching these valuable lessons.” – Debi, Kindergarten teacher
“Learning about money is so much fun because it feels like I’m playing a game of being a grown up. I think it’s important to learn how to use money so I can buy things I want and not waste all my money on other things. And I like the flash cards.” – Kindergarten student
“Kristin is a dynamic teacher who thoughtfully created lessons around students’ previous knowledge and interests in the areas of credit, investing, and compounding interest. Her lessons were fun, engaging and included lots of time for discussion. I watched on as these youth had “aha” moments each time they met with Kristin, and it was great to see their interest and engagement with the content. I highly recommend this program and Kristin in particular to any teacher or youth worker interested in increasing financial literacy among the youth they serve.” – Rebecca, Project Lemonade
“I’m very grateful for the skills Kristin has taught me. From Budgeting to personal life advice, she has you covered!”
“PNWFCU is creating inspiration through money management.” – Project Lemonade interns
“Great statistics to show HS students about financial literacy, emergency funds, net worth, and debt! Great conversation starters!!! All good stuff here!” – Dan, high school teacher
