Learn MoreAs a young student I struggled with school and was so shy. It was with the help of some great teachers that I grew academically and socially to strive in school. I chose to be a teacher so I could help students the way I was helped when I was in school.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceSeeing my students do well and grow everyday is what I love most about teaching. One of my most memorable experiences having students come back to tell me how they would love to come back to be in my 2nd grade class and also when they tell me what college they got into!
What would you do with the $25,000?If I received 25,000 most of it would go back into my classroom to add resources to my class and school. Probably would also use some for a mini vacation with my daughter.
