Learn MoreI 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 experienceMy 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.
