She was a special education teacher in an elementary school for 27 years. Some days she came home too tired and too stressed to do anything else. Even when she had a terrible day, she always came back the next day with a smile, because she knew her students needed her. When asked what her favorite thing about being a teacher was, she never hesitated: “I love watching the light bulb go off in a student’s head when they understand a concept. » She said this moment makes even the most stressful days worth it. She's done teaching now, but always said making a difference in a child's life was the best part of her.
