Tell us why you became a teacher

I always liked helping others. I had a feeling that being a teacher would allow me to do this. Once I became a teacher it was clear to me that I had made the correct choice. The added bonus of being around young enthusiastic people only made it better 🤎

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I'll never forget a student that I had a chance to work with. She was very shy and didn't like to go to school. Overtime, we built that relationship of trust and comfort which pushed her to want to go to school, talk to other students, and one day wants to become a teacher 🤎

What would you do with the $25,000?

Pay off debts, put the rest in the accounts of the children who can’t afford lunch.
