Learn MoreI became a teacher because I was never the kid that fit in. I wanted to be the teacher that loved on everyone, not just a certain group. I want to make every student that comes in my room, leave knowing someone loves and cares about them. It’s a special calling and I’m glad the Lord has called me to show His love.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceSadly, my most memorable teaching experience has been this year when I lost a student. Not because of the sad memories, but because of the good ones. This student was a bright light in my classroom and brought a smile to everyone’s face. Going through that has only brought me closer to my students and made me love them more. It’s only solidified the fact that my main goal is to make every student that walks in my room feel like they matter and are loved.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would like to give some back to my community by helping my low income school. We have several children who go home to no water or heat in their homes. Any bit would help. I would also like to try help my husband through school. He is pursuing a degree in nursing!
