Through this realization Hundert is able to see that even though he may not have succeeded with Bell, this one “failure” does not minimize the positive contribution he has made to the lives of his many other students. Hundert’s success is evidenced by the fact that even after 25 years, Hundert’s students throw him a party to show their appreciation of the advice, instruction, interest and guidance he gave them when they were students at St.…
Oscar Banks and his father, Campbell, are overwhelmingly and scarily similar. Although they are related, being father and son, the way they act as almost the same person is eerie and concerning. Both use lying, trickery, and other forms of manipulation to get what they want, however they both have very different agendas. Although both Oscar and his father Campbell believe in manipulation, Campbell uses manipulation as a way to control everything, where Oscar uses manipulation to undo his father's control.…

Outstanding educators are caring. While most educators possess this quality, it is the notable teacher that is able to transcend his or her feelings into concrete and measurable ways that demonstrate an investment in the individual student. The outstanding educator asks and continues to ask; what can I do for this child? What does this child need? How will I deliver? What resources are available? The student's progress and goals are constantly assessed and evaluated. Outstanding educators care about the whole child- academically and socially.…

Like the 6 or 7 teachers before him Mr. Clark experienced a sense of futility and had a lapse of judgment when he threw his hands up and walked out on the kids, but his own values of integrity, maturity and abundance mentality ultimately guided his decision to go back into the classroom.…
As I near the end of my high school career, I realize that I am not the same person who began 3 years ago as a freshman. While my teachers instilled the fundamental aspects of a well-rounded education, I learned through my own experience that education extends beyond the classroom. My activities in academics, athletics, community service and work experience, have instilled qualities in me that will prepare me for the immediate future of college and beyond.…
I interviewed my mentor teacher Beau Samuelson, who is the resource room teacher for Math, Science, and Social Studies at Stallings Island Middle School. During my interview with Mr. Samuelson, I found out that he had a passion to educate children about sail boating that he wanted to educate other children with their academics. I learned a lot about Mr. Samuelson and his field through our interview in which we covered in the following: his background that prepared him to be the teacher he is today, how he educates students with disabilities, how common instructional accommodations help students, the goals that develop student academic independence and self-advocacy, the research-validated interventions Stallings Island Middle School offers, and how he feels about being adequately prepared for his teaching program.…
Being in this class and having participated in every discussion had given me a lot of privilege to obtain knowledge, understanding and comprehension about the world of socialization and interaction; the reason why do people behave such a behavior; elements of effective communication; the pillars of education that a teacher must possess in his heart and mind; the cultural differences that each teachers should be aware of; the importance of social institutions in building-up a holistic individual; the peace that connect us together to live as one despite of the conflict and differences that forbidding us to; and lastly the importance of making all things possible through applying everything that we have learned. In short, being enrolled in this class taught me to not just only absorb what I have learned but to exercise application. "Everything starts with in us." This was the quotation that one of my classmate had said while we were having a hot discussion.…
