I became a teacher because I wanted to help autistic youth learn new things, and feel supported in the classroom. Fostering a safe, fun, learning environment is my goal every day for my students.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience was when my class rode on tricycles during indoor recess. I joined in and rode a tricycle as well, and the kids had a lot of fun during this experience.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would use the $25,000 to upgrade our school library. I would also upgrade the students’ laptops. I would then look into alternative seating for when students are at their desks and having trouble focusing or being comfortable in their chairs. Lastly, I would get fun and engaging fidget toys to help students feel regulated and calm in the classroom.
