Documentary: American Teacher

There was a free screening in Los Angeles at Mount St. Mary's College on November 16th at 7 pm, so I went to check it out (I am finally taking the time to write about it). The documentary is about how the label as teacher has been so under-appreciated in America that it has been embedded in our culture. The documentary follows four teachers from all around America and introduces all the problems they go through in trying their best to teach their students. It shows all the sacrifice, the genuine passion, and the struggle of it all. Teachers inspire, they are hardworkers (and work more than some people assume), they are dedicated, but at the same time they are career is misunderstood and underpaid. The quality of a country takes it all the way down to their teachers. In America, the situation does not look so good.
