I became a teacher because I wanted to help kids achieve their impossible dreams.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience was when I tutored a fourth grade student for 9 weeks straight after school who was reading on a first grade level at the onset. That year she not only grew by two grade levels but was able to pass the standards of learning test for Virginia.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would pay of my student loan for my Masters in Literacy Education with Reading specialist licensure.
