Teaching elementary students is the best job ever! They make me feel happy, they make me laugh and sometimes they make me cry.

Since I was a little girl, I knew I wanted to work with children and families in some capacity. At first, I thought I was going to be a nurse but then the idea of working with blood and guts grossed me out! So then I turn my focus to teaching. Runny noses and vomit seemed better than blood and guts!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI have a lot of memorable moments in my teaching career, but probably one that stands out. Is one time around Halloween. One of my students came to school with an envelope. In the envelope there were three magazine cut outs. They were all costumes. One was a female police officer. Another one was a cat and love. The last one was a witch. I asked him what that man and he said oh these are the things I would like for you to be for Halloween! I ended up being the which!
What would you do with the $25,000?I would use that money to pay off some of the debt that I have. Thank you so much for your consideration.
