Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher, because my mother was my hero and she was a teacher! I grew up at school with her and was amazed when I would be able to watch her teach. From then on, I knew being a teacher was meant for me :)

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience is and always will be building relationships with my students and then having them contact me years later. I keep in touch with so many of my former students! It is the most rewarding, because you know you have made an impact.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With 25,000 I would honestly probably save it and then use it as needed when it comes for educational experiences for my children.
