Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher to reach students , that are struggling . Also to show them success is possible, hard work can take you there .

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One of my students had been having a hard time all week. I would chip away everyday, asking him if he is ok . Until Friday morning he was looking for me to tell me , how much he appreciated me asking how he was everyday.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take my family on a much needed vacation, as well as pay some bills.
