Learn MoreI wanted to do something rewarding with my life. I loved working with children as a teen, and I felt called to teach. I haven't regretted the choice to serve others with my life. The rewards have truly exceeded any challenges.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI would have to say the first time I was able to teach the child of a previous student. It was a full circle moment. Or maybe the first time I taught a child to teach. There have been so many in my 26 years of teaching.
What would you do with the $25,000?I'd pay for part of my daughter's college. I'd reimburse myself for all of the extras I've purchased through the years that my salary doesn't cover. ๐ Truthfully, I'd probably share it with my family. ๐๐ I'm about to celebrate my 20th wedding anniversary; so that Hawaii trip seems nice.
