I was a restaurant manager and I found no fulfillment in my career. I knew I enjoyed teaching people how to do their jobs so I explored that further and decided to become a teacher.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceIt’s my first year so I feel like they’re all memorable, but one that sticks out is I think I’ve helped a student find a special interest in plants. He seems super interested in the content and even brought his own plant in!
