Last week we saw a film
called: Dead Poets Society. I was prepared this was a really boring film, but
it wasn’t. It was actually an enlightening. The themes were quite interesting
too. Themes like: Carpe Diem, Falling in love, school, teaching and
suicide. Teaching is maybe the main theme. The plot in the film is always
involving the theme teaching. There is especially one teacher who stands out.
He’s very savvy and nifty, and he work tenaciously. He has a quite different
way of teaching, and this teacher is the reason why the story is good enough to
make a film of it. He is changing the whole plot. The way he teach and talk to
the students, is the reason why they understands that they decide what they
want to do with they’re life, and not just their parents. It's from him they
learn to follow their hearts, instead of their brains all the time.
At this school the teaching
strategies are very strict. And they learn to listen to their teachers and
parents, and not to what they want. The new teacher turns this almost
the other way around. He really wants them to follow they're heart and he also
makes the learning into a funny thing, and makes the students want to learn
more. Personally I think that is a much better way of teaching stuff to
students. Can’t just every teacher teach like that?
