The movies which inspired me to learn schoolteaching...

in #teachers6 years ago (edited)

I do not know if you know, most of you probably do not, but teachers' salaries in Israel are among the lowest in the OECD countries, in Israel to say that you are a teacher is something that is not so good for your social status.

It probably means a few things about you,

  1. You can not learn another profession because you do not have a high ability and therefore decided to study a degree in teaching History, Sports, etc...
  2. You do not have many ambitions and you are looking for a relaxed life (I can assure you that this is all but a sense of calm)
  3. You went to the profession as a divine mission... (I think that's the best option of the 3 above ).

The strangest thing is that almost 100% agree that a teacher is the most important job in Israel and that teachers' salaries must be raised so that better people can come to the teaching profession.

So where is the government and where will the people? Something to think about.

I spent two years practicing teaching, I was a substitute teacher of a teacher who had a very unfortunate incident (because I did not have a degree, I did not have tenure)

I'm telling you this because you might think I'm showing you the movies as something romantic in the teaching profession.
Or, "What does he think, that it's that easy? It's not a film dude wake up!!!"
No! I have experience, I have never been so close to collapsing from the exhaustion that this profession brought with him but still I loved the kids.

The next film is based on a true story, and I'll tell you something! I have seen such real stories, there is no more amazing profession than a teacher who comes to be a true teacher. There are no more amazing people than people who have come to educate the souls of those children who are not their own children, but the teachers feel that it is their children.

The first movie that I'm going to introduce to you named
"Freedom Writers"
It's about a teacher who came to a school that had been a great school before the "Migrants" came to the hood that the school placed in and just ruined it.
the new teacher that just finished her degree started to teach at this school and tried to get the heart of her students by letting them write a diary.

I think there is no one to remain indifferent to this film, especially since this is a true story, and I will say even more than that, it happens every day!

After this movie I realized what the power of Hollywood is, they have the power to destroy and build.
I think this film gave me such a huge inspiration, an inspiration that I could only get through such a wonderful film, I'm not sure Hollywood knows what effect they have, good or bad.

The second film I'm going to talk about is called"The Ron Clark Story" with the amazing Matthew Perry!

, who can play a funny character "Chandler Bing" in the "Friends" series and can play a most exciting character "Ron Clark".
In the film we are talking about a teacher who entered a school in the neighborhoods of the Afro-Americans people in the United States, the dismissive attitude is like a white teacher who will succeed in taking over a class of "Afro-Americans" he is asked for. I thought it was some Hollywood legend about a successful teacher, but it turns out Ron Clark was staying with Oprah Winfrey on her television show and explained his education methods and how he manages to bring his students to amazing heights. No matter where they are from.

טוב - על הדברים שבפוסט כבר דיברנו, אז פשוט אמליץ על כמה סרטים בנושאי חינוך(לאמא שלי יש במחשב תיקית "סרטי חינוך" שארגנתי לה ככה שיצא לי לראות כמה וכמה) שאני התחברתי אליהם:
we are marshall (ספורט - חינוך כזה, ממש טוב!)
Stand And Deliver ("מוכר כ"לסניור באהבה)

thanks!

הוא יותר ממדהים.
פלוס מצחיק תוך כדי שהוא מרגש.

Well most of the societies put the Education at the top of their list in terms of success. If we read the history of the world no nation get succeed without excelling in the field of education. There is a very famous quote of A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honour for me.

I am a teacher by profession and it is my passion because i just want to give back something to humanity. With this aim i am teaching the students so that they can be a functional part of the society in future.

I will watch these movies for sure to learn more tactics and techniques regarding teaching.

Here are afew movies that i am going to recommend you My Friend do watch it too

You are always welcome don't forget my friend You have been doing a very prestigious job <3

I'm also a teacher but I'm enjoy it not sacred .
It's honest of your job . Well post .

Namaste

teaching is very sacred job. I appreciate you @amiramnoam

Leaning is far more easier than teaching. I realize it when I get my first tuition. It really heard to understand others something. I learn so many things from my students . In my eyes teaching is the heard & tough profession of all. Where you can't make mistakes. Cause If we teach something wrong they will learn wrong.
Thanks for sharing this

@amiramnoam

No School of Rock? :) or Dead Poets Society? :)

LOL, I didn't see Dead poets society but!
school of rock didn't inspire me

oooh i understand... well, make sure to see Dead Poets Society, because Robin Williams is having a blast in it :)

If you haven't watched Detachment, be sure that you do!
This was an inspiration to my friend that is a professor also.

Teacher's position after parental status, because they teach us everything. Good, bad and from our discipline, life needs to grow. The education teacher is responsible for educating the nation's backbone

Excellent post good analyses thanks for sharing

"Dead Poets Society" It is also necessary to add the film. @amiramnoam

Lol, too fun with @reko! I've always thought hats should be off for teachers because it is a tough job.

Richard LaGravenese won a place in the screenwriters' hall of fame a dozen years ago when he spun gold out of the tinselly novel "The Bridges of Madison County." His source for the inspirational movie "Freedom Writers" is far more inspired -- actual journals of disadvantaged students at a Long Beach high school, who had been encouraged by an inexperienced English teacher to write about the violence and traumas in their lives.Their heartbreaking stories of becoming victims of random shootings and losing friends and family to gunfire and prison terms, published as "The Freedom Writers Diary," are a natural for the screen.
LaGravenese, who also directs, resists the temptation to focus primarily on their idealistic instructor, Erin Gruwell, even though she's played by two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank. This was the mistake of the similarly themed "Dangerous Minds," in which Michelle Pfeiffer's teacher is too much front and center.
"Freedom Writers" switches back and forth from Erin's privileged life to the struggle of her charges, giving the latter more weight, as this is where the drama lies.
Swank, who hasn't always been wise about her choice of roles, felt strongly enough about this one to sign on as executive producer. Nobody does grit better. She adds a layer of steeliness to her portrayal of Erin. Her determination to do things her way is evident early on, when she ignores the advice of a veteran colleague to not wear a pricey pearl necklace to class. Erin shows up in it almost every day, accessorizing a wardrobe more suited to ladies lunches.
Her curriculum also is inordinately correct, discussing Homer's "Odyssey" until a local gang shooting helps her see the urgency of seeking out more relevant subject matter. Soon, the classroom is studying the lyrics of Tupac Shakur and reading "The Diary of Anne Frank" to understand that they are not the only youngsters who were ever under siege. A scene of them meeting with Holocaust victims -- the same concentration camp survivors who spoke with the real freedom writers more than a decade ago -- is particularly poignant.
Rap singer Mario, who's appeared in a few movies, is a standout as Andre, a student headed for trouble after his brother is unjustly sentenced to 15 years. Andre stops showing up for class. When he returns, ready to give up, Erin refuses to let him. Mario matches Swank's powerful emoting as teacher and protege go at it, fighting for Andre's future. Most of his classmates are played by amateurs selected because they could personally relate to their characters' traumas and setbacks. The realism they bring to the roles more than compensates for a lack of acting experience.
The movie is a tad too neatly constructed. The kids fall lockstep under Erin's spell, while in real life there must have been a few dissidents. LaGravenese, whose screenplay credits include "The Fisher King" and "A Little Princess," is a far stronger writer than director. While good with actors, he's yet to master the art of transitioning between scenes.
"Freedom Writers" often feels claustrophobic. Much of the action logically is confined to a classroom. But LaGravenese misses opportunities to capture ghetto neighborhoods by moving the camera quickly indoors.
Erin's problems with her husband are inadequately explained. He quickly goes from being supportive of her efforts to jealous of the time she devotes to her students.
Overall, however, "Freedom Writers" is a noble effort. At a time when New Year's resolutions to change already are falling by the wayside, you can't help but be moved by a group of young people who followed through on their resolve. It's one of the movie who teaches us life lessons . Thanks for sharing this @amiramnoam blessings to you. Keep sharing like this.

teachers are the unsung heroes 👍👍👍

Para poder ser un buen maestro hay que tener vocación,pero para hacer algo increíble con nuestros niños implica conocerlos mas. Un buen maestro los hace bajo cualquier circunstancia. Excelentes películas.

Thank you for learning.

Upvote and follw me @burabay

A World without teachers; total chaos and anarchy.

Well done for such an important cause and highlighting burning issue that needs paradigm shift from the authorities and societies.

Teachers moulds and trains the young generation, their salaries should be enough large cuz with this they'll be mentally satisfied.

In India also it's more or less the same, Teaching job is very much under valued and low paid job. In most of the rural areas they have an agreement even to teach absolutely without any pay and if they stick back only after few years they get a salary, which is so very sad. The job that should have the highest value is given the least priority.
But there is another part to it where the teaching profession at the international schools are highly paid and recognized.
I used to teach when I was doing my graduation and it was such a good feeling, but once I got a job I had to stop it due to time limitations.
Btw the movies seem to be interesting.
