Learn MoreI became a teacher because I love learning new things. My greatest joy is ensuring that my students enjoy learning as well.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI once had a troubled young lady come to me and share some difficulties she was having at home. While we talked, it became clear to me that she was facing a similar struggle that I did at her age. Near the end of our conversation, I helped her understand that she is the one in charge of her future - no one else. Today, she is a successful mom of three and we greet each other with hugs every time we see each other.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would purchase some science materials for my students as well as help pay for my daughter's college education.
