In my opinion, teaching is still a very special profession. Teaching and educating people, explaining and explaining things, is not a job that everyone can do. There are too many responsibilities that ordinary people cannot afford. A teacher is not just a person who stands in the classroom and lectures, he is an extremely important part of a child's growth, which may affect or even change a person's life. So I have always believed that a good teacher can teach students and solve puzzles while setting a character example for students with their potential personality charm. A good teacher is not only a teacher but also a friend and relative. It is a time when you need it. Someone who can turn to. Maybe I am too harsh, such a teacher is too perfect. But such a perfect teacher appeared in the movie "Street Diary"---Eileen Grouvel starring Hilary Swank, this ordinary woman, an extraordinary teacher. What makes me gratified is that the movie is also adapted with real strength, which means that there are really such teachers who think of civilian heroes in real life.

The thing that attracted me the most in the whole movie was actually Hilary Swank, and seeing her name made me want to see this movie. Hilary Swank is always special, every one of her films gives me special feelings, whether it's "Million Dollar Baby", "Boys Don't Cry" or "Crystal Eyes", "The Harvest", "White Nightmare" his eyes Always special, when you stare at them, you can't help but get lost in, lost in the movie. Of course, after watching it, I understand that the whole movie is much bigger than Hilary Swank. It has more connotations and more places to pay attention to.

When I read the street diary from the beginning, I was shocked. I was shocked by the unusual life narrated in a normal tone. A girl like me, a girl loved by my parents, lived with gangsters, guns and ammunition since childhood, and died in bloodshed. It was a normal thing, until one day her father left because of this. She learned to fight, join gangs, take drugs, and go to a small school. This kind of life is not just her and the life of the students in classroom 203 is more or less similar. . And Erin Gruwell is the teacher of this special class. Everyone didn't understand, didn't support, and looked forward to Irene's one day saying "i am done or i quit", which also included Irene's husband who once thought of sharing weal and woe, but Irene was very persistent and tried her best to integrate into this special event. class, teach them knowledge, and look forward to the day when they will see a different side of life, for which she has devoted all her efforts. She did her best to create a different world for the students, Classroom 203, so that these children who had experienced racism, fear, hatred and death outside the school and felt that the age of eighteen was a distant dream found a warm haven , She exchanged her sincerity for the sincerity of the students. The movie has a happy ending, I'm not surprised at all, such a teacher can naturally teach successful students. I hope that there will be more and more teachers who are so sincere and persistent in our lives, who know how to teach students according to their aptitude, who never give up easily and who are knowledgeable. But maybe my expectations were too high.
