I have worked with children for over 18 years and was always told that I would make a great teacher when I was working as a summer camp counselor. I have always wanted to make a difference in a child's life. Plus, my mother was an educator for over 25 years so it runs in the family!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceOne of my most memorable teaching moments was when I was a student teacher in graduate school.

What would you do with the $25,000?I would pay off some debt, buy some really cool supplies for my classroom and save the rest for my kids college tuition.
