I love being a teacher because it makes my day to see my kids eyes light up when they understand something or being silly with them

I have always wanted to be a teacher ever since I was little and I stayed by babysitting and teaching Sunday school at my church. When I got to high school I knew I wanted to teach choir and so I went to college for it but things changed and ended up going for elementary education, I currently work in a daycare and love helping all ages but especially the older ones to understand things
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI mainly work in the school-age class at the daycare I work at and one student in particular, always has to be by my side and he asks about my son. He knows he can tell me anything about whatever is going on and we always talk about school.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would save it for when I have to start paying off my student loans so that I can start teaching as soon as I graduate and help kids
