Register NowI never liked school. I had a tough time for most of the time. I wanted to change that and become the type of teacher I would’ve wanted. Someone to connect with students, care about them, and make learning fun and relevant.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI had a really rough student. Lived behind a dumpster, constantly in fight/flight mode. Honestly the connection and positive relationship with them is a big highlight. Every achievement and breakthrough was very memorable.
What would you do with the $25,000?It’s not exciting, but I’d use a chunk to pay off my student loans. I also love STEM and would love to get some more robotics and things like that for my classroom.
