About a Teacher

Great film! Really shows how hard teachers work and the emotional journey they experience with students. I look forward to my future career as I know it will be challenging but worth it.

Did a great job of depicting the day-to-day of an NYC DOE teacher during the first few years! I related to this movie on so many levels, and it was hilarious. Highly recommend it!

I was a teacher for 2 years. This movie showed perfectly what the classroom is like. It's a zoo!!! The kids are terrible! I almost got ptsd.

I feel that this was a great realization of what many new teachers face . Great job

This was an excellent film! As someone that is about to embark on the profession, it gave insight to what this profession entails. It is a great representation of what this life is going to be like and how immersed we will be become as teachers with our students and the rigor that comes with the job. The great underlying message is to never give up. No matter how difficult it is in the beginning don't quit. As Mr. Harchol told us, "It does get better." This is a film I will watch again and probably a few more times after that. It is also an important film for current teachers so they can reflect on how different things are going now as opposed to when their career first started.
