Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher to work with children who struggled with even simple tasks. Every child deserves a fresh start everyday.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable moment was connecting with a child who had been asked to leave 4 other schools and seeing him through to the end of year ceremony with feeling loved and part of a community.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would build an outdoor space for kids to enjoy and learn while not having to sit still in the classroom. A space for them to create with nature.
