I love teaching because of how much other people get out of me being a teacher. Students are growing all day both academically and socially.

I became a teacher in order to help students love school as much as I did. I want to create experiences and opportunities for students to learn and grow in a fun environment. I want to students to have a passion for learning, as well as to help them become good people.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience was my last day of student teaching. All of the students ran up for a group hug on the last day. They then found out I was going to continue teaching at the school after winter break. It was very heartwarming to see the impact I made on the students.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would use it to help support all of my students. I would use it to give them the best experience possible.
