Teaching is my passion as I love to watch children grow, especially through self-discovery by fixing their own misconception about ideas.

I became a teacher because I wanted to help kids as I was helped growing up. I wanted to help children come to believe that they can succeed no matter the obstacles that they are presented. To be a active part of the future through this next generation.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceOne year I took a group of nervous 5th grades, who didn't know about sustainability or pollution, and gave them the confidence to tackle the problem on a global scale. They researched, created, and problem solved their way to being the representative of Arizona to go to DC to present in front of National Geographic on what they believe we should do to fix this epidemic.
What would you do with the $25,000?With $25,000, I would be able to get my family into a better financial situation, as it would allow for me to have the time and means to go back to college to get my Masters in STEM Education, so that I can continue to push myself and find ways to reach more children to motivate them to believe in themselves.
