Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I enjoyed helping students learn. I wanted to instill in them the importance of lifelong learning and how education can improve your life.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One of my most memorable teaching experiences was when a former student wrote me a letter thanking me for believing in them and inspiring them to believe in themselves.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won $25,000 I would retire early!
