I love teaching because it gives me an opportunity to not only mold the future, but be the role model for kids who don’t have one.

I became a teacher because not only do I love music, but I love teaching people who don’t know anything about music and building their love for it.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable moment as a teacher was taking my students to compete at band competitions. Not only did they get the experience, they also brought home several trophies!
What would you do with the $25,000?I would use the money to help support my family as well as moving closer to my job so the commute is a little easier on me in the mornings. Also, ai would rent out Chuck E. Cheese’s for all of my nieces, nephews, and their friends since that is their favorite place to go.
