Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience happens every day when I’m able to get an aha moment of impacting the lives of my students. My most memorable teaching experience is every time I have a former kindergarten student to find me and express how I have impacted their life. My most memorable experience is each time I receive a hug from one of my students and they tell me that they love me.
What would you do with the $25,000?What I would do with $25,000 is continue to invest in my students by buying socks, backpacks, pencils, and essential needs. Additionally, I would pay off some of my debt and treat myself to a well deserved massage.
