TCP: The Freedom Writers

One of my well-loved movie with Hilary Swank on the lead is The Freedom Writers.. This is such a good movie ideal for novice teacher...

Here's the synopsis of the movie...

Fresh-faced, idealistic twenty-three-year-old Erin Gruwell
(Hilary Swank) is ready to take on the world as she steps inside Wilson High School for her first day of teaching. Her class, a diverse group of racially charged teenagers from different walks of life - African Americans, Latinos, Asians, juvenile delinquents, gang members, and underprivileged students from poor neighborhoods - hope for nothing more than to make it through the day. On the surface, the only thing they share is their hatred for each other and the understanding that they are simply being warehoused in the educational system until they are old enough to disappear. Despite her students' obstinate refusal to participate during class, Erin tries various means to engage them on a daily basis. Click here for more

Here's the trailer...



You will love this for sure!

Happy TCP! Head on to Kikamz for more of the entries...

Psychological Testing plus more...

My colleague called me up this morning informing me that we'll be having a Psychological testing at 1:00 PM, i was somehow surprised but committed myself to comply. When we are already at the Guidance Office, I was surprised because it was not only Psychological Test that we need to take, there's an Aptitude Test, EQ and Work Habits Test... Weeee that was tough! My neck really aches... We have the options to continue with the other test on some other day, but i opted to do it all the way to maximize my time...

Can you imagine solving an Algebra problem (x-y which I have long forgotten),mind boggling Abstract Reasoning, Extra Difficult Reading Comprehension, Confusing Analogy and Situational Teacher-Student Challenges... Well, so far I made it and I am a little bit excited with the result...

Anyway... it's a good experience actually... It's nice to be reminded and refreshed of our past lessons...
