Monique Colizzi is being recognized for her Excellence in Education.
Samantha Snider, Monique’s nominator, says, “She's the kind of teacher who leaves a mark on her kids and shapes the way that we approach life and our educational paths. And I guess I'm just grateful that I had the opportunity to have her as a teacher."
When asked what advice would she has to offer other teachers out there to connect with their students, Monique says “Well, one, I think they need to find the passion and really just listening to their students, creating creative projects and innovation, being present and willing to make a difference."
Monique Colizzi from Wilson Talent Center has received a $2,000 check from the Michigan Lottery.
