Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher to make an impact on student lives. I wanted to help them learn that through education you can change or improve your life. I became a teacher to support students and to let them know that I care about each and every one that walks in my classroom

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

When a child was in Special Education but tested out the next year. He came to me and told me that it was because of me and my teaching that he tested out. Another moment was when a student said that he will make the right choices in school because he has a model ( me ) in front of him showing him the right way.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Materials for my classroom and things that will enhance the learning in my room
