I stayed at home for 7 years with my own kids. I have twin girls who are 13 and a son who is 11. As my kids started going to school I really wanted to be a teacher. I became a parapro first and worked hard in college to get my degree. I got my degree at 34 years old. This is my 3rd year teaching and loving it.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI don’t know if I have one that sticks out but I just love trying to get to the “tough” kids. I have had several in my classes over the years and they always win over my heart.
What would you do with the $25,000?Goodness, my family and I could go on a nice vacation or even start my three kids a college fund.
