Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceThere have been many special experiences, but a particular one was when I was working in a school that was located in a very challenging area of the city. My student and I were working on a Christmas song called my grown-up Christmas list. It was activity where they had to act out the different parts of the song without using words. After one of the final rehearsals, I remember us all in tears and hugging each other, realizing the impact of the words and message of the song.
What would you do with the $25,000?Due to a lot of difficult personal life challenges, I would apply it towards my retirement funds.
