Tell us why you became a teacher

My mom was a teacher and had always wanted to be teacher as long as I could remember. Even when there weren't any jobs, I presumed being a teacher. It is my calling to help form amazing human beings.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I had a very difficult student for 2 years. Every time he sees me, his whole body lights up. No matter what has happened in life, I was a positive point and still bring joy to him.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Pay off some debt and go a family vacation.
