Street Diary tells the story of the new teacher Erin, who has successfully made hopeless young people see hope through her own efforts, and created her own street diary. The story begins at the beginning of the cultural revolution in American education, when students of different races were assigned together because of their grades. But their life is messed up and they have no intention to study. At the beginning, Erin, a young teacher who just entered the workplace, started her educational journey with enthusiasm. Although she encountered many difficulties along the way, she never gave up. The students of class 203, because of the pressure of life, they can't focus their life on study at all. Later, Erin began to know the situation of his students. In order to buy books for the students, Erin buys notebooks and works part-time. At the same time, she also took the children to visit the Holocaust Museum to inspire the children. Finally, with Erin's unremitting efforts, the children of Class 203 have made great progress and created a miracle that belongs to them. There are many interesting plots in this movie. First, Erin's conversation with her husband before the students go to multiple jobs and the specific work scene of Erin afterwards, I think it's quite interesting. Second, in order for the students to have a deeper understanding of each other, Erin did not back down when answering questions. They were clearly enemies, but they took bigger steps and stood closer, a group of arrogant and tangled children. I think it's kind of funny. I was thinking the whole time I watched this film, because it felt like every scene in it could trigger people's thinking. There is no doubt that a good teacher has a huge impact on students. Maybe I may become a teacher in the future, then I can't help asking myself, when you become a teacher, what can you bring to your students? I think the protagonists in the film are strong. Eva, who was forced to recognize the injustices of this society from a young age, and Andre, whose older brother was eventually jailed, had his faith broken. Etc., etc. I also hope that I can be like them. After going through thousands of hardships, I can still believe in hope and love life when I return. I like this kind of movie with profound meaning. Just watching one can make people reminisce for a long time and make people gain something. In my opinion, this film is mainly suitable for young students and young teachers to watch. Because they are still in a period of time when they believe in hope and can make changes. Keep working hard and miracles will happen. This is a story about how a young teacher changed the lives of a group of children.
