The Ron Clark Story.


The Ron Clark Story follows the inspiring tale of an energetic, creative and idealistic young teacher who leaves his small North Carolina hometown to teach in a New York City public school.
As a future teacher of English, this movie has inspired and enlightened me in so many ways.It teaches me that to be a dedicated teacher is never simple. In the movie, Ron Clark teaches one of the worst schools in Harlem. A school where violence and racism is an everyday issue. Being a dedicated teacher, he chose to teach the worst class, believing that he could guide those students to excellence. This shows the burning passion that Ron Clark has for teaching. This passion should be shared by all teachers. By doing so, teaching will be both a fun and a very rewarding career.
This movie also taught me to believe in my students capability to learn and change. Ron Clark never lost faith in his students despite being discouraged by all parties. This result in him accomplishing what he set out to do in the first place, which is to change a batch of academically poor students for the better.
Overall, this is a very inspiring movie. This movie has taught me so so much about the teaching profession. Besides that, it has also become one of my favourite movies of all time.
