Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher when I knew that there was a need for Science teachers. I want children to enjoy science and all of the amazing experiences and experiments that we will encounter.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

When I am teaching and can see the lightbulb in their mind turn on, what a great experience for the student to actually understand.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would probably buy a car since I have an older car and not only do I teach school, but I tutor after school for a few hours each day.
