I love teaching because I believe it is my calling. I get excited when my students grow, excel and achieve.

I became a teacher because I took a tutoring job in my junior year of college and knew that was what I was supposed to Don with my life.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI remember teaching at an alternative school. This young gang member came to us from jail with an ankle monitoring device and a menacing presence. I got the opportunity to see that young man grow into one of my best students. That was so awesome.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would give some to my local church, add some money to my retirement fund/investments as teachers tend to not have enough and put a little in my son’s college fund.
