Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI was teaching a child that was new to my class. He had come to the US from Africa. His skills were not on grade level, but I knew that he could do anything he set his mind to. The moment he learned to divide using tally marks was a great moment. The look on his face said it all. He was so incredibly proud.
