Yesterday we had a movie time in the class.
The title of the movie is STAND AND DELIVER.
Warner Bros Movie

Genre: Based on True Story
Setting: East Los Angeles, CA. 1982. (Garfield High School)

Rating: ★★★★
The plot of the movie is a dedicated teacher inspired his drop-out prone students to learn calculus build up their self-esteem and do so well they are accused of cheating.
The story about a dynamic educator and a brunch of low-achieving students in Garfield High School. There are only 18 students in this class who have different personality. Some of them are emotional, stubborn, lazy, naughty, impolite, and smart alec. There are also a playboy, a clever girl who has financial problem in her family and last but not least, the mafia student who has secret determination to study for the sake of his grandmother. (So sweet of him)
They are going to prepare for their final exam which is so called "Advance Placement Calculus". Of course, they are facing many difficulties to prepare for this examination. Fortunately, they have a kind, dedicated, motivated teacher although sometime he may be a little stubborn. However, he is the type of patient person. He teaches all his students patiently and treats them like his own children. Moreover, he keeps encouraging his students to do the best on their exam.
When it comes to the conclusion, this is a good movie which can inspires our life and motivate us. On the other hand, nowadays it is very rare to find such a dedicated, idealistic and motivated teacher.
