Learn MoreI became a teacher to give back to my community and hope to leave a lasting effect on my students the way my teachers affected me. That is why I teach in the community where I was raised and educated.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceIt is difficult to boil it down to one moment so I will choose a theme. My most memorable experiences are when families come back to visit and express how they think of our class and how they had a positive impact on their future.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I were to win the $25,000 I would fix a few things around my house and try to save as much as I could to help pay towards my twin daughters college educations.
