NGPF Flash Surveys are a great way for teachers to find out what other teachers are doing about...

• Advocacy
• Social Media
• Role of Math
• Curriculum
• Technology and MORE

We send out these surveys every other month. By tapping into the collective wisdom of educators, these surveys provide tremendous support for the "I'm the only personal finance teacher in my building." They also help us better tailor our products and services to your needs and help us identify gaps where we can help. With over 1700 educators responding to NGPF Flash Surveys over the past school year, they have become an indispensable tool to share best practices across the community. We wanted to honor those teachers who have contributed to each of our last 6 surveys.

Tim Ranzetta

Tim's saving habits started at seven when a neighbor with a broken hip gave him a dog walking job. Her recovery, which took almost a year, resulted in Tim getting to know the bank tellers quite well (and accumulating a savings account balance of over $300!). His recent entrepreneurial adventures have included driving a shredding truck, analyzing executive compensation packages for Fortune 500 companies and helping families make better college financing decisions. After volunteering in 2010 to create and teach a personal finance program at Eastside College Prep in East Palo Alto, Tim saw firsthand the impact of an engaging and activity-based curriculum, which inspired him to start a new non-profit, Next Gen Personal Finance.
