Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceIt was just a couple of years ago. Majority of my students were below grade level. It didn't matter to me because I knew that I was able to make progress with them. We worked hard. We took the ACAP, I beat the district and state that year!!! The best feeling ever. Watching them grow and develop made me feeling so good.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would donate school supplies to my school first and far most. Then, complete some renovations on my house.
