Teacher needs adventure???

The Ron Clark Story is about Mr. Ron Clark who left his small town teaching job in order to get more thrilling adventurous teaching experience. He felt empty and unsatisfied teaching normal kids who scores well in his old school. Mr Clark quits his job and set a journey to New York to explore the world and serve new students.

This is when he got a job in a less reputable school in New York. Mr Clark was assigned to teach the worst class in the school and he accepted it. This specific class was struggling even to pass the basic skills test. Mr Clark took this situation as a challenge for himself and tries really very hard to make the students to study and pass the test. Did he succeeded in doing that?

Yes, he did succeed after going through lots of problems. He even recorded videotapes for his students when he was supposed to be home taking rest during his medical leave. Mr Clark made sure he did his best to educate and prepare the students for the test.

A teacher's search for adventure is potrayed nicely in this movie. Ron Clark's sense of achievement is something he deserves and motivational for teachers all around the world. I really would like to be a teacher like him in the future.

  1. Miss renuga,
    I liked this movie too. I believe that we need to think wide and try to find a way to upgrade ourselves. I loved this movie for his teaching techniques and his approach towards the students.He loved them but he had his own way to get them into his way. Hw was a very special TEACHER. I too wish to be a teacher like him. So, Good luck to both of us.

  2. The saddest part of the movie was definitely when the little boy got nearly beaten senseless, and he was found in the alley crying in pain. Heartbreaking!
