Tell us why you became a teacher

I struggled as a learner and thought what better way to pay it forward, but help children.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I absolutely love reading aloud to my class each and every day. We use visualizations yo imagine what is happening. Sometimes we may watch a movie of our novel, if one has been created. Most times they say, “ I enjoyed the book more.” Makes me so happy hearing this!!!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would help those that don’t have access to books in my school to get them.
