I love teaching not because of what I teach, but because of who I get to teach! Getting to build relationships and class family is the best!

I became a teacher because I saw others in my life become teachers and saw how much they loved it! Now that I am a teacher, I have come to realize that I love teaching because of the students. No matter who they are, they make teaching the best job ever!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience has been this year, teaching a small, two-grade class. My students are so much fun! We have a blast. One thing we do is go to our local nursing home and do crafts with them. It has been so cool to see my students making an impact in the community - plus we all get to have fun!
What would you do with the $25,000?I would split the money. Some would go to my school I am currently working at, some would go to my past college, some will go towards a non-profit, and I would keep very little to pay off college debt (which isn’t much).
