How to Adult

If any course could epitomize our mission at Nexbooks, of making learning relevant and applicable to real life, this course is it. A common complaint that young adults express is "how come I didn't learn about that in school?" Well now, kids can and are learning about "adulting," from early on. From career and taxes, to loans and citizenship, this course breaks down what everyone should know in adulthood, and is presented in a way that anyone can understand. You might find parents eavesdropping on their kids during this class...as many of us adults are still sorting out some of this stuff out. Enjoy.
