Brought us to tears ! Wow ! that is the power of student driven teaching !
As the one who taught this class. I am a science teacher. What some seemed to miss is that I didn't only teach science. I also taught English and Grade 10 Christian Ethics. This was done in our Grade 10 Christian Ethics class. It had nothing to do with Science.
Amazing story! Feeling very emotional after watching this video. I think I have learnt from you to trust students and make them as visible as the teacher. Thank you so much for sharing!
Fantastic, well done! Very inspiring and heart-warming.
Thank you for being true to your self Mrs Wright. Awesome lecture and story. An example on how education should be. It`s very inspirational!
Amazing - I love it. Makes me very emotional; this is how I feel about my students.
In all of the classes I took in college were never taught by leading teachers in America except one. He started out his career as a janitor. The second person who encouraged me had been a high school dropout. The third person had founded one of the top schools in the world. It was because of those people that I developed what became the top program in CA in what I taught.
Awesome! What a great group of students! I hope they are all prospering and continuing to help others wherever they go.
Mrs Wright thank you for such an inspirational lecture i was delighted and had goose bumbs throught your lecture....
This is excellent video about a learner-centered classroom that went onto to do great things. Changing the world.
Absolutely brilliant, thank you very much.
Wow, what an amazing talk. I'm from Cape Town, South Africa. My school is in many respects curriculum based, this is because in my country there are many teachers that aren't very qualified. But I've found that the teachers make the biggest difference.
This is an incredible talk. What a story. Thank you so much for sharing!!
What an amazing teacher and a group of amazing kids! It shows also that sometimes with exposition something which seems impossible to happen can actually do if it has a good cause, globalisation can bring about even bigger exposition with huge results.
The remarkable information you provide to your viewers needs to be applauded. I sincerely appreciate your effort to expand your viewers knowledge. A sincere thank you!
I believe that teachers should not stop learning and searching for a change. when the teacher changed her point view about teaching, she gives the students a chance to learn better and make a differance.
Love it! I have been teaching public school for 6 years, and I would love to jump in!
I think the prime step to achieve success and progress of our students ,is to trust on their abilities and exceed our expectations of their well and determination ,they will always do it .
Interesting concept.So much of this presentation resonated with me. Given the state of our educational system, beginning with pre-school and ending with PhD programs, it is worth trying a different model.
