Give a personal example of teaching accolades, but you can also focus on a teacher/student success story. Being more specific is the best answer here. The interviewer wants to get to know you and see what matters to you in the profession.

"Over my 15 years in the profession, I have had recognitions and accolades, but nothing is better than the achievement of student success. When a student leaves my classroom, I want a part of them to use the information they have learned in my class for the rest of their lives. By having students coming back to visit and hearing their stories, I understand the impact I have had on students that needed me during a particular time of life."

I received the "Teacher Of The Year" Award for my district a few years back. This has been a great thing to put on my resume and I proudly hang the plaque on the wall. It is nice to be recognized.
