Tell us why you became a teacher

I worked at a daycare and they were offering free classes to get a technical degree in early childhood. I jumped at the chance and graduated from Nashville State with honors. I have been doing it ever since.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience has not much to do with teaching..it’s the connections I have made with families. The families of the children I have taught still keep in contact with me. I still have contact with a child I taught in preK and Kindergarten who has just started her first year of college. ❤️

What would you do with the $25,000?

Save for my retirement.
