Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceIn my 5th year of teaching, I encouraged a student to participate in a public speaking contest. The student came to me about a week before the contest and stated, “This is too hard. I can’t do this.” I told the student, “You signed up for this and you will not give up. I will be there every step of the way and help you.” During the contest, the student did phenomenal and won 1st place.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would purchase sensory activities and flexible seating for my students. Also, I would take my children on their very 1st plane ride to Disney World.
