I want to be a safe and place for young children. I work with ages 4-6 year olds and many of them haven’t found their voice to advocate for themselves (yet). My goal is to teach them to find their voice.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI don’t have one specific moment. However, my proudest moments are working with children that are deemed “difficult”. Those kids always end up being my favorite long term relationships. Most are misunderstood and need a person to trust and love them. Many aren’t given the chance to thrive before they are labeled difficult.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would put it towards my daughter’s home schooling journey and furthering my education in psychology
