Tell us why you became a teacher

My love of learning and the belief that education can change the world encouraged me to become a teacher.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I had 2 students who has special needs. Neither had friends or socialized. The day the two of them played a board game with each other had me in tears because they had reached personal goals.

What would you do with the $25,000?

As I am retiring in June, I would like to use some for health insurance as the school district doesn’t provide. I would also like to donate some to the students in my school for a reading or behavioral incentive program.
