Tell us why you became a teacher

My mom is my inspiration, and I like to make the difference in someone's life, and I love to teach with passion and dedication, especially in a different language and share my traditions.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

As a teacher I've had many memorable experiences but if I were to talk about one is helping my students pass their Ap Spanish exam. All year we strive towards the goal of getting a 5 on their exam, after months of hard work and dedication to this subject receiving their scores and realizing that I was able to teach my students, while having them pass with the highest honors is truly amazing.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest in technology and up to date text books, so my students can enrich their learning experience. This includes laptops, tablets, and special software to acquire personalized and interactive learning.
