My love for teaching comes from the positive impact I am able to have on the lives of my students. I call all the students as my kids.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI have had many great moments in my few years of teaching. My favorite moment was going to an after-school performance for a group of 4th graders. I watched them preform and they did great. After, one of the students were taking pictures outside with family. I noticed they were taking separate pictures due to split family. I asked if he wanted a picture with everyone. I took that picture of everyone. He had the biggest smile. He would always give me a hug anything I see him. He is now graduated.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would love to use some of the money to provide my school with some supplies, sponsor couple of field trips, and pay off some of my debts.
