potential victims...

I'm having a hard time pin pointing a teacher who really stood out to me throughout my educational career. Coming from a small school with a mediocre staff, I wish I could say that at least one of them made a positive impact on me. However, there is only one, Mr. Tran, who was the most horrible math teacher I've ever encountered but I feel like I don't have enough background to make a 1200 word paper out of it. I've seen another great movie, similar to Freedom Writers called the Ron Clark Story starring Mathew Perry as a school teacher out of his element in a New York City school, so I'm considering comparing him and Ms. Gruell since they take place in a similar environment.
Any thoughts? Would that be way too easy?

  1. Too easy?! Naw way, mang. Our paper two assignment sheet says we can compare any two teachers, fictional or otherwise. Way too easy? Not at all

  2. I am kind of in the same boat, My teachers growing up where pretty terribad. I never thought of picking a terrible one and comparing it with a good one that might make for a better essay than just trying to come up with 1200 words on two good ones.

  3. I think comparing a terrible teacher to Ms Gruwell would be make for a really clear and informing paper.
