Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I am passionate about educating and helping children understand how the world works and how to succeed in it. I also love working in diverse cultural environments where I can share my knowledge and guide students.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience has been helping my students become more independent in their daily classroom routines and seeing them apply those same strategies in their lives outside of school.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000, I would invest in expanding my knowledge by earning certifications in areas such as autism, curriculum development, and crisis management to better support my students.
