To share knowledge and stories with students and my fellow teachers to make a positive impact in their lives. I’ve realized what I really want out of life is to be missed and remembered in some way. I don’t remember most of my teachers I’ve had in my life but I do remember a few and a few things they have taught me. I want to be one of those few teachers for someone else.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI am only a few years in on my teaching career but I have had a few students tell me they notice how patient I am and how I make them feel safe in the classroom. That feeling of security for me that I’m providing without even realizing it is special for me
What would you do with the $25,000?Straight up—— I would pay off my debt.
