Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceEach day brings its own unique set of experiences, and even on the most challenging days, there's always a lesson learned—whether about a student, the subject, or myself. Teaching is a dynamic journey, where every day leaves its mark on both teacher and student, shaping a memorable and fulfilling experience that extends far beyond the classroom walls.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I had $25,000, I would prioritize making smart financial moves. First, I would use a portion of the money for a down payment on a home, securing a stable and long-term living situation. I would also set aside some funds for an emergency savings account, ensuring financial security in case of unexpected events.
