Sarah Beery

I love teaching science because I help my students explore and learn about the world around them, and become enthusiastic to learn more!

Tell us why you became a teacher

I chose teaching so I could help students love learning as much as I do! I wanted to show them how amazing the world is and can be.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Another teacher and I had our students do an authentic research project. A few years ago, I had 2 students do a forensic science project on automaticity and if it would be admissible in court. They were thorough and amazing with the entire project! They did the research, created an experiment, and presented their findings.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would visit my sister, who lives in Scotland, as I have never been to see her home there, and I would help my daughter pay for college.
