Freedom Writers

I found the Freedom writers to be a very inspirational movie for me as I aspire to be a teacher. While watching it, I found it astonishing that a teacher could play such a huge role in the lives of children.Erin Gruwell never gave on these children even though they were faced with obvious disadvantages. She had to dig deep inside of her and find a way to teach a group of racially divided teens and bring them together. She used her own methods to reach her students. She used journaling as a method for her students to express themselves and develop a connection with each other. Erin Gruwell gave her heart and soul to better her students in all aspects of life. I believe that she is what all teachers should strive to be.

    I agreed with many of your comments in your response to Freedom Writers. I also believe that Erin Gruwell is what all teachers should strive to be.

    I agree as well. All teachers should be more like Erin, but we should have workshops or classes that can let us strive to be more understanding of each student
