    Film review of Freedom Writers

    The film ‘Freedom Writers' tells the story of Mrs. Erin Gruwell, an inexperienced

    English teacher who took on the job of teaching English to pupils at Woodrow Wilson

    High School, where there are many tensions such as prejudice, racism, injustice, gang

    battles, and violence. Woodrow Wilson High School can be compared to our society

    where there are many tensions surrounding us.

    Many teenagers or students nowadays, including myself, may believe that

    teaching is a simple job, but after watching the movie, Mrs. Gruwell demonstrates how

    she disciplined her kids to the point of sacrificing her own personal life for them. She

    was so committed to teaching that she was willing to take out her own money, work

    double shifts, and be ridiculed and belittled by the department head in order to educate

    her students. She improved the lives of the students with these small gestures. Here,

    she’s determination can be compared to the resilience of the Filipinos where even we

    are facing crisis, we are bouncing back from the bottom. We always smile at all times

    even though in that time, we are dejected. I recognize that as students, we sometimes

    overlook the value of a teacher in our life. We get annoyed with them occasionally

    because they give us a hard time in tests, piles of readings, and assignments, but it's all

    in the name of educating us. I learnt that a teacher's job is more than just talking and
    writing; it's also planning how to assist pupils improve cognitively and emotionally every

    day.

    Teachers feel exhausted, too, and find rest when they see us accomplish despite

    our flaws, so I'll double down on my studies for their sake as well. Now, I appreciate

    their existence for assisting me in being more prepared for life. I learned from Mrs.

    Gruwell's personal struggle that even when people fail you, you will always find a way to

    recover and move forward. “But even an ordinary secretary, a housewife, or a teenager

    can, in their own tiny ways, turn on a small light in a dark room,” Miep Gies said the kids

    in the film. which led me to believe that change occurs when someone is willing to take

    action and when they see past a person's flaws to see just their potential.

    Mrs. Gruwell accomplished this, and we should all do the same because

    sometimes all we need is someone who sees the good in us to motivate us to change for

    the better. In the life tales of the students, I learned something from Eva, who chose

    justice and truth over loyalty and connection in the case of a murder in a convenience

    store where his partner killed someone and blamed it on someone else.

    Someone can always point out your previous wrongdoings or faults, but this will

    have no bearing on your future. I need to put the past behind me and concentrate on

    the future. Someone who sees hope always has a beginning, and we must not give up

    on them so soon. Mrs. Gruwell herself embodies majority of our students where we are

    doing our job that isn’t in our field of education. Mrs. Gruwell fights for what she wants
    and gets it, and the kids graduate despite their circumstances, which inspires me to

    keep going with what I've started. Mrs. Gruwell herself embodies majority of our

    students where we are doing our job that isn’t in our field of education.
