I love teaching because kids are so eager to come to school to learn and have so much energy and enthusiasm when they learn something new.

Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I love to see children grow and learn . They have so much to experience in their educational years. When students come back to you and say thank you for teaching me and I’m now a teacher you know you have made a difference in their lives many years ago and that stayed with them .

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take some of the money and spend it on some in items in my classroom and I’d take and give some to various charities especially to help the homeless because they need to be off the street and in a safer place to stay.
