Learn MoreI have always wanted to be a teacher because I feel students need someone to not only teach academics, but someone who cares about their needs.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable experience is just having a student get that “aha” look on their face when they realize they have gotten a correct answer in class. One student looked at me and said “thank you”, I’ve got it now! Also, my family and I were flooded out of our home last February, and students were calling my principal to make sure I was alright.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would give my students an end of year party, spend some in my family, and fix my home. My family and I were flooded out last February.
