Learn MoreI have always loved working with kids. I love their joy and excitement for new things! I knew I wanted to be a teacher at a young age and was a camp counselor for years and then went to school to become a teacher.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI would say my most memorable teaching experience was teaching a kindergartener with autism. He had trouble connecting and trusting new adults and was not interested in school at all. I knew he loved dinosaurs so I incorporated dinosaurs in our math activities and reading activities so he would connect to the content. I knew I made a difference when during the second month of school he hugged me and when I asked if he liked school he replied “yes, yes!!!”
What would you do with the $25,000?I would pay for my children’s education at their prospective colleges. I have three children and my hope and dream for them is to further their education and live out their hopes and dreams.
