Tell us why you became a teacher

I chose the teacher life due to feeling strong/positive impressions from teachers during my school experience. I had teachers that made me want to come to school. Some teachers have that energy to make learning fun. I wanted that life. However, I also had teachers that let me down. Those teachers made an impact as well by showing the need for some change!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience would be when I first started teaching and I saw the eyes of a struggling student light up due to understanding the material.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off my student loans and take care of my family with the remaining amount!
