Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I had one of the best experiences in school from elementary all through high school and I wasn’t sure what I was gonna do with my life, but my father was my inspiration at the age of 15. He told me as I was walking a little elderly lady to her car, He said you either going to work with the elderly or you gonna work with children, and I looked at him. I said sure Dad, whatever you say. And now it became a dream and a reality for me and to say that my father was right

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience was when I was working with the pre kindergarten children and teaching them how to read and how to write. How excited they were to spell their name and to reach to their parents in the evening at their house. It showed me that what God has given me as a talent I was able to show to the children

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I were to win the money, I would pay off my debt that I have and probably donate some of it to the school that motivated me to follow my dream and donate some to the church that I grew up in
