What does it takes to be a great teacher? Does teachers who get to teach the brightest class in the school are great teachers? I don't think so..
The first thing come into my mind when I see the title of the movie is, who in the world is Ron Clark? What have he done or his contribution to this world? why did someone made a film about him? .. I get all the answers to my questions after the movie ends.
For me , this movie is just like the other teacher's movies that we have watched in the class. This movie is about teachers making a difference in student's lives . Isn't that what teachers supposed to do? To help and guide students so that they can get the education and become a better person? I think that is what great teachers do. They will do everything in their power to their students to success. Inn the Ron Clark story, he had to battle against the system at times to do what he felt would help his students . The steps he takes, the approaches he makes, the energy he extends and the devotion he shows manage to produce a wonderful outcome. He reaches the student's families, in order to help them. The most important thing is he gives them more than an education and a desire to keep on learning; he gives each one the knowledge that they do matter, and that when they put their hearts and minds to it, they can achieve anything.
In all, this movie is full of redeeming, positive messages and values. It is recommended to all the teacher in all over the world.
**My favourite moment in the movie is when Mr. Clark had an argument with the principle. He said this:
Ron Ckark: The problem isn't the kids. It's not even what they can achieve. The problem is what you expect them to achieve. You are setting the bar here. Why? Set it up here! They can make it.
