Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because living in a rural area many students did not imagine a world beyond our environment. As a teacher I am to pour into my students and the world is there. They can be whatever their heart desires. I love my students and help them understand that they are amazing, brilliant, and beautifully made. I became a teacher to inspire and motivate my students to always give them there all.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My memorable teaching experience is when my students ask that was struggling during instructional time. They began to gain knowledge and pass their assessment with mastery. It is comforting that little things in mastery help to gain my students self-confidence.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won the $25,000. Would take a trip. I would also, get much needed materials to help my students succeed for the next academic school year and take them on a field trip beyond our city.
