I became a teacher because I wanted to teach children with special needs who have an emotional and behavioral disability.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience has been working with a student who had a lit of trauma going on in their life. School was the last thing on his mind. I was able to help him with resources for the trauma. We made baby steps with his behavior and this student was able to get out of the program and graduate from high school.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won $25,000, I would take a well deserved vacation with my family and put a down payment on a house.
