I love when the kids reach the point of understanding where they can not only help their friends, but expand on ideas.

Tell us why you became a teacher

I loved my teachers growing up and I never really wanted to be anything else. I loved school. I enjoy learning and working with students, we can all learn from each other and my days are never boring.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I had a student who was my shadow and parrot. They followed me, copied me, and repeated me. It was so nice to see how that student changed from the start of the school year to the end, and how a lot of the traits they picked up stick around. They really made me reflect on my practice and we both grew so much.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay down my personal debts and buy new furniture for my classroom. I have been wanting new tables and shelves for over a year and this would be a great way to start the room refurbishment.
