Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceEvery time a student comes up proud of themselves and tells me I get it Mr. Hess. Look I can do it. This is what makes a teacher most proud. I also love using, Classbank as my classroom economy. It helps me teach my math students financial literacy and responsibility before they even have jobs. The kids love it! These are a part of my favorite moments in the classroom.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I win, I would spend more time with my kids and family. I would pay some bills down and plan some camping vacations with the family.
