I became a teacher because I wanted to make a difference in the world. I wanted to start a ripple effect of kindness and genuine concern that all would want to share with others! I remember the teacher that made a difference in my life in fourth grade to this day!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI am so fortunate to say there have been so many that keep me pushing on to do more! Some of the best moments are when your students come back after years and thank you for what you’ve done!
What would you do with the $25,000?I would help others! Schools like mine ( Title One) supports but a lot of the time costs to make things happen must come out of our personal pocket!
