Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher to inspire young minds to think about math creatively about math. I wanted to make math fun and engaging. Something I never got as a student.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable experience is when students were so excited to take a test because they felt like they were prepared and they had fun during the unit.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would start my own curriculum.
