Tell us why you became a teacher

I think teaching is such a rewarding job! It's all about inspiring and helping others learn and grow. Plus, getting to share in each students educational journey.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One of my most memorable teaching experiences, would be teaching math and one of my students just didn’t understand. I took my time and did a one on one session with that student every day until she got it. And she graduated that following year and we both cried because I knew how hard it was for her.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won $25,000, I would consider a few options for using that money wisely. First, I would set aside a portion for savings or an emergency fund to ensure financial security. Then, I would think about investing some in education or personal development, like taking courses or workshops to enhance my educational skills. I could donate to a charity or cause that I am passionate about, helping others in need.
