Freedom Writers Diary

Ever since Christmas I've been reading The Freedom Writers Diary. The book has true diary entries from Ms. Erin Gruwell's 150 students who she helped out (well for most of them) for their entire high school years. She understands teenagers, young adults and children unlike most teachers who don't really show much appreciation. As long as you turn in your schoolwork they won't hate you. At least that's what it seems like to me. Well maybe I might be a little wrong maybe there are more "Erin Gruewell's" out there. If I do decide to become a teacher I'd like to be as smart, helpful, kind, encouraging and caring as Ms. Erin.
