Learn MoreI’ve always wanted to be a teacher but I chose FCS education because I was inspired by my own FCS teachers in school. There’s a need for teachers and who doesn’t like teaching the fun class!? I always wanted to make an impact, and so now I am!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceThere are so many and never a dull moment during the day, but I’d have to say the students who come up to me at the end of the day and thank me for teaching them important skills, or students who bring me hand written cards, that is what teaching is all about and I wouldn’t change it for the world.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would put the money towards my student loans and my future family. I would like to start a college fund for my children so they can go to school and earn a degree in the field they want to do.
