Alfred P. Fisher

I love evoking change in young people's lives and sharing the power of belief in one’s self while teaching them theory through curiosity.

Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I wanted to be a living representation of what "fighting for what you desire" looked like for children who could see themselves fitting into certain arenas. In addition, I want my young ladies and gentlemen to see another father, uncle, or just supportive male figure in their lives.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience was seeing two of my special education students, who previously struggled with taking the regents, pass it. One of which had one of the highest scores in the department.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use the money to take care of my family and invest in their future.
