5 Teacher Movies That Motivate

Grab some popcorn, a soda, and one of these inspiring flicks to renew your educational energy:

1) The Miracle Worker (This movie has been remade several times, but the Patty Duke version is my personal favorite!)

2) To Sir, With Love

3) Finding Forrester (Not a teacher movie in the traditional sense, but still fabulous and it stars Sean Connery, which in my book is reason enough to watch. Connery is a reclusive writing prodigy who mentors an inner-city high school student and learns a little something about himself, too.)

4) Dangerous Minds

5) Mr. Holland's Opus
