Tell us why you became a teacher

I got into teaching rather late. I was helping my daughters and their friends and I noticed I have a knack for making lessons come to life. I started my Bachelor’s at the age of 40, and earned it with a cum laude. I earned my Master’s soon after, and moved to the high sierra’s because I was offered a job at a charter school. 11 years later and I’m still at that same charter school. I love it!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I was in New Orleans for New Year’s, and we ran into friends from our past. We took them to the WW 2 museum, and I started as their guide. Soon our group grew. And grew. It was the most fun I’ve had in quite some time!

What would you do with the $25,000?

Fill up our school library with half, and visit Morocco with the rest. Thanks Mr Bogart!
