I was not always the best student, however, I was always able to thrive because I had wonderful teachers. Several teachers made a huge impact in my life and I wanted to do the same for others.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience was when my 5th grade class read a book together and fell in love with reading. We wrote letters to the author asking many questions and wondering if there was a sequel.
