Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher when I decided to work as a TA to help pay my children’s education. I began to work in South America and the school where I was working encouraged me to get my certification.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Four years ago, one of my students was struggling with his medication (getting it calibrated) and one day he was walking around the classroom looking at the anchor charts and his learning dawned on him. From that moment he became a mathematician.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Pay my debts and go for a Doctorate’s in Education
