Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher so I could make a difference in the lives of my students. My students with special needs deserve the best education and I try my hardest each day to provide them with my very best self.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching moment is watching students succeed and make progress on their goals. I also love to see my students enjoy school, smile, and laugh while at school.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I was to win the 25,000 I would spruce up my classroom to make it more fun and colorful. I would order materials appropriate to help my students with special needs succeed and make progress. I would like to purchase individual supports and incentives for each of my students to help them enjoy school.
