Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

While driving a mobile lab for a local college, I was able teach robotics, fly drone, teach flight simulation, learn and direct coding, surveying, horticulture, agriculture, stop the bleed, first aid, and so much more. But the best time was when I was playing ring around the rosey with 1st graders, and helping them with electronic flash cards on a giant I pad a tivity board. Those were the best smiles and moments ever.
