Being an adult is difficult. On a good day. Learning the ‘big’ life lessons from multiple mistakes can be distressing, at best. Doesn’t the saying go, “if only I knew then what I know now . . . .” Well, that’s exactly what this class is all about!
 
We can watch YouTube videos all day, scour through reddit and Instructables and wikiHow, wearing out our eyes reading about how something could be done. You know what’s better than that? Actually learning the skill by doing.
 
Throughout the year, we’ll be learning skills such as:
basic car maintenance
budgeting (which includes balancing a checkbook, credit and debt, buying a car/home, renting)
basic cooking skills and how to meal plan
home maintenance and repair
emotional regulation and relationship skills
 
Come join me as we learn what it really means to be an adult, and help students get prepped for the real world!
