Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher so that everyone has a number one fan. Everyone needs someone that believes in them, sees them, hears them, and loves them. I love supporting students in being themselves.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One summer I went abroad to work with teachers in Nepal. It was so incredible to see them teaching, and to have the kids share with us their learning. Kids everywhere just want to learn, and will do anything to do that. Hearing them sing a song for us to welcome us definitely tugs at your heart strings.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use it to put towards buying land to build my dream Miss Honey from Matilda house. I’d also of course get treats for my kiddos.
