My love of teaching stems from the gratification it fulfills in me to do something great for others.

My desire to work with young people and I was inspired by a teacher earlier in my education who had a positive impact on me.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable experience as a 2nd grade teacher was when a student graduating from high school came back to thank me. He remembered vividly how I helped inspire him in math which he was pursuing in college. He also remembered in great detail our Hogwarts Halloween party. When memories so many years later are so vivid in a students life it confirmed that everything I do that goes above and beyond is worth it.
What would you do with the $25,000?First I would do the responsible thing and pay off any debt. Next, I would set some aside for fun, I love traveling. Lastly, I would buy/donate a library of rich and authentic literature to hospitals to give to families.
