Freedom writers

I just finished watching the Freedom Writers Diary. That is by far one of the most moving, and touching movies that I have ever seen. The way that Mrs. Gruwell Got through to her students by relating the books, and projects that she assigned to her students lives was nothing short of amazing. She did such an amazing job getting her students to relate to each other, and make them realize that they were fighting the same battle that people before them have fought, and that they are the only people that can enforce change in their lives. through watching this movie i learned so much about motivating students, and caring for them, and making sure that they have the tools that they need to make it through life. To me Mrs. Gruwell was a prime example of good teaching. She did everything in her power to make sure that her students related to the subjects, and made sure that they realized that they were not alone in the fight that we call life. She cared so much for her students that they sensed it, and i believe that motivated them because someone finally believed in them, and was not giving up on them. This movie is definitely in my top 5. I believe that if someone wants to be in the education profession that they should watch this movie. It is a great learning tool.
