I became a teacher to make a difference everyday ,in the lives of my students and players. Whether in my science lab or on the soccer or lacrosse fields, I have the responsibility to engage and teach and care all at the same time. To know the student , believe in the student, and challenge the student to succeed and be the most productive young person in society . i’m never afraid to think outside the box to make a difference in learning . We are always learning from each other!
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experiencei’m 2011 , I spoke to an auditorium full of parents and predicted that we would be the top science class in the United States in a competition called ICE, Igniting Creative Energy national competition . . i lied we were the best science class in North America. Do not be afraid to dream big. never lose that child like imagination, I'm 59 and I believe in my students and players that can do it all. . I Have FAITH! in them always! They make me the best TEACHER, Everyday!
What would you do with the $25,000?i’m a dad of 3 young adult children. I would love to be able to take them on a nice vacation for the first time in their lives. I would use some of the money to help pay for the last semester of my oldest son's tuition If I won, I also would do something for my 87 year old father . He gave me the best advice in my youth. “Son , do something that you're passionate about and, and you will be rewarded with a lifetime of memories , you can be proud of." I love what I do! Thank You DAD❤️☘️!
