Let's hear what students and educators are saying about our program.
"The TurboTax Simulation has given me more confidence related to future tax filings by providing me with practical, hands-on experience in preparing and filing taxes. It allowed me to understand the process and identify potential deductions that my family might be eligible for, which I may not have been able to do on my own."

"The TurboTax simulation helped the students to understand the process of completing their taxes as most of them are starting to do their own taxes. Students started to take a more active role in their own finances, rather than allowing their parents to take the lead, because they had the knowledge to help support their process."

"A critical problem that our students face is not having had experience of the “real world” before they are suddenly thrust into it at 18. The TurboTax Simulation allows them to “get their feet wet” in a low-stakes manner and learn about some of the essential adult requirements of life they will be facing!"

"As a Community College Entrepreneurship Educator, I look forward to using the Tax Stimulation and resource guide in my Spring Classes. This is a much-needed and under-discussed subject. It is equity and teaching students financial literacy. I can't wait to have rich discussions and role-play scenarios with my students."
