This movie shows how 16-year-old Claireece P. "Precious" Jones suffers throughout her life. Since she is abused physically, sexually and mentally, she finds it is hard for her to focus on her study. Precious has been arranged to an alternative school to help her to change her lousy life. It is not only for her academic but also for her psychological therapy. Precious cannot focus on her study because of she is mentally disturbed and he black experience keeps appearing in his mind.
What will I do if one of my students has the same problem? Then I realise that as teachers, we must concern about our students. Sometimes teachers tend to scold their students for not paying attention but they never notice that the students are actually in dilemma or problem. By giving them input and homework will not be helpful to them until the students are able to accept the lesson.
From this movie, I see that being a teacher is a tough work. But a good teacher will always be there for their students to help them. Teacher's touch can sometimes be an effective remedy to the unfortunate students.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteThis movie once again stressed the importance of understanding your students. The teacher should get together with the students and tries to get to know them personally. In Precious case, the teacher should show her some love (like Ms.Rain did) so that she is able to appreciate herself.
However, it is kind of hard to get to know each of your students when it comes with a great number.
