I became a teacher so that I can make a difference in the lives of my students that I serve.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One of the most memorable teaching experiences that I have had is seeing the progress that I am making on a daily basis with my scholars and making a difference.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the 25,000 I would donate some of the money towards the school that I work for and I would also use some of it to get better teaching materials to serve my students better.
