One reason is as a young girl my first grade teacher was such an inspiration to me , I wanted to be like her . As a young child I would always pretend that I was a teacher and teach my stuffies. When grew up , I married a United States Marine . I knew I wanted a career that I could move around with, but also be home with my children during holidays and I always dreamed of becoming a teacher, so it was the perfect decision. I also wanted a profession that I could enhance a child’s life.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceEach day when students come to me and give me random hugs or tell me I am the best teacher . Also those little moments when a student is struggling and the light bulb turns on and they get it !! It’s the most amazing moments !
