Learn MoreI became a teacher because I want to make a difference in young lives. I want my students to know that I am always there to support them & cheer them in their education. I want my students to feel supported even when they might not have much support at home. I was born to be a teacher!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI have had many memorable experiences in my teaching career. But I would have to say my most memorable was when I had a student that had been struggling to read by their self and they finally became a successful reader. That megawatt smile was worth all the hard work they put into it!
What would you do with the $25,000?What I would do with the money is to do a few renovations to my home & maybe take my family on a much needed vacation to somewhere fun & exciting!
