I love teaching because it gives me the opportunity to help shape the lives of the children and help them to become productive citizens.

I love teaching because number one I love children. Next I love how teaching gives each student the aspect of becoming whatever they decide to become. Finally I love that I’m able to interact with the students and pull out the best in them.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceThe most memorable experience is when I was helping a Kindergartner figure out how to do subtraction by using different objects. When they caught on they were like I got it. They were so happy that they were able to do it without any help.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would help another teacher that will be going out on maternity leave soon and they are worrying about how she was going to make it while she out to pay here bills.
