Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I love teaching students how to learn. In addition to that, I like to create well rounded “thinkers.”

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One of my most memorable teaching experiences was creating a rap to help my students learn the “Preamble to the Constitution.”

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off some of my debt, help my children out and prepare for my mother’s 70 birthday.
