I became a teacher because it was the one way I could make a difference and help mold little minds.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

When my students finally connected dots in math class this year with multiplication. Watching their faces light up made me feel like I was floating.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would be able to get more things for my students and classroom that would help with their learning experiences. I could also keep snacks for those that may never have anything special to take to lunch.
