"To Sir, with love", a 1967 movie, although the shooting method has been slightly yellow, but the warmth of teachers and students in it has not faded. It is definitely an important reference guide for education today, and it is also a lot of teachers. Model of life story.

The story focuses on how teachers deal with the rebellious mentality of students facing adulthood. An engineering graduate who has never received teaching training, works as a teacher in a secondary school for two meals, hoping to support and find End of the engineer’s work. As a result, he did not get the offer until the end of the semester. At the same time, his patience with students moved the students, and was moved by the students in turn. Other teachers at the school also praised his performance, and finally decided to continue to be a teacher.

High learning does not mean that you can be a good teacher. This movie shows the important elements between teachers and students. In fact, the plot of this kind of story is not unfamiliar. In terms of it, it is a heart-warming work. Many production methods that have been abandoned in modern times can be found in movies. For example, the action of visiting a museum replaces mobile shooting with photos, which is simple and brings out the personality of each student.

"Teaching by example", this is the body language that the protagonist of the teacher has always followed. He did not actually say how to teach. Moreover, he has no teaching theory in his mind, and the story does not say what is a good teacher and what can be done. Teach students well, but the understatement of the plot makes everything self-evident.

This movie feels a lot like Du Lufu's "Play in a Play", I believe it is related to the close age, and the basic shooting methods are quite similar. Of course, "Play in a Play" has more long shots. "To Sir, with love", the Chinese translation is "Tao Li Man Men", which doesn't match the content and theme of the story.

I don’t know if many teachers have watched this movie, but I believe that if you are interested in becoming a teacher, you must watch such moving stories.
