Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I wanted to help and teach kids who grew up like me. Kids deserve to feel special and valued, which is why I do what I do!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience was when I had been stuck in traffic and arrived to school late. The substitute in my room for the first few minutes said “Oh, good! The kids won’t be distraught now.” Them being then so excited to see me and that I had arrived showed me that I’m doing everything right as their teacher. That they enjoy being at school and my teaching.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off my credit card and put the money towards my wedding! My fiancée and I got engaged this past October, so we are trying to save up for our wedding.
