Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because ever since I was little I've had the biggest passion for teaching. I used to teach my stuffed animals after school to complete my homework. Finally, I personally love the feeling of watching students grow in their education and becoming successful.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience would be in my lower level class, through all the behaviors and all of the obstacles there is to leap over, I had a student who did not feel super confident in the material. He would not participate. He would not complete his work. After a little while of seeing this pattern, I spent some time with him breaking down the procedures. After some time had went by, the student excelled in the content. He was answering almost every question in class, with a smile

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take the money to pay off my student loans so that I can afford to go back to school to get my doctorate degree in education
