Coming out of High School I thought I wanted to become a Math teacher. I started taking Math and Science classes in college and realized that Chemistry had concepts that needed a good bases of Math and so I combined them to become a Chemistry Teacher
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceOver 37 years I have had many memorable teaching experiences but I think doing labs in Chemistry are always great experiences. I have a dry ice lab and when the students finally get the concept and I see the excitement I truly understand why I love to teach science.
What would you do with the $25,000?I have taught 37 years and looking forward to Retirement soon. The 25,000 dollars would be a great way to retire at the end of next year. Also I would like to make sure my daughter gets an education and this would help.
