Hello!
My name is Yael Hadas, the Academic Head of Economics at the International School at Reichman University. I hold a PhD in Political Economics and Government from Harvard University, as well as a BA and MA in Economics from Tel Aviv University.
I have been teaching and studying Economics at top universities in Israel and abroad for many years.
I am passionate about teaching Economics, which is why I decided to create this website to make economic knowledge accessible to all.
Let me share with you the journey that led me to start this website:
Upon completing my academic studies, I realized that although I had a solid understanding of complex economic topics, I lacked essential knowledge about managing my personal finances. I found it quite challenging to find easily accessible information on these subjects.
Due to my professional experience in teaching economics and publishing books, I have developed the ability to explain economics in a simple and understandable way.
On this website, you will find a wealth of information about all the economic concepts that are essential for managing your life. I also offer articles, free video programs, and digital courses where I cover everything that schools do not teach but should.
I hope you enjoy browsing my website and find it helpful in understanding topics that may have seemed difficult to grasp.
Sincerely,
Dr. Yael Hadas.
“My vision is for economics to be taught in schools from first grade through twelfth grade, just as mathematics and language are taught.”
Economics For All
We all want to know how to manage our money, but economic knowledge is systematically taught only to those who choose to pursue a degree in Economics or Business Administration. I believe that economic knowledge must break out of the academic ivory tower and reach the general public. Economic knowledge is as important as literacy, at the very least.
Economics must be explained to everyone in an accessible and engaging way, without barriers such as advanced mathematics, because even those who are not strong in math often need to take out a mortgage and must make informed and wise decisions.
Information for the General Public
Every person needs to understand what interest rates and inflation are and how they affect their bank account. Everyone should know how to manage their pension, what management fees are, and what return on investment means. When it comes to savings and investments, it’s crucial to understand topics related to risk. On my website, I aim to share this knowledge with the general public..
My Goal
Because I believe in setting big goals, I am setting the following objective: to reduce the level of ignorance and lack of knowledge in the society regarding economic and financial matters related to personal management.
