Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience is when one of my students had a melt down because they feared not graduating a week before graduation. I took that student and immediately found the sources she needed to graduate and she ended up graduating on time.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would donate a portion of my winnings to the Media Arts and Design Academy for better equipment for our students and start a scholarship fund. Ultimately, all of my winnings would go to helping my students.
