Synopsis: 
Ron Clark is a young teacher in public school in his native town North Carolina. Enthusiastic and full of energy he is famous for his innovative methods in teaching. His life changes when Clark has to leave his small town and move to New York where he was offered to work in Harlem school, being more precisely in a disadvantaged class where lots of problem children study. Clark intends to improve their test scores, their marks and even wants to make this class one of the best. But it turns out to be not so easy, every student in this class has his or her problem, and Clark's main aim becomes to teach children to cope with their problems and make them believe in themselves. Not giving up his attempts Clark managed to improve students' level in schooling, helped them to got the highest test score and even made them the best class not in Harlem but in the city.

Review:
I think this is a kind of  "must see" movie. This is a great example that shows what the true teacher should be. The protagonist of Matthew Perry possessed the main features of the teaching profession. These are faithfulness in his methods and belief in his students. This film is about an inspiration, about an ability to light up the hearts.

Speaking of the film in general, I can say that the plot is not original. There are a lot of films with the same theme, for example "The Principle" with James Belushi in the main role or "Detechment" and others. But this film differs from others with its touching atmosphere which is created by means of actors' playing. Matthew Perry does a great job of portraying Ron Clark. Watching his performance I really believe that his charactor will manage to achieve the aims. The creators of the film give the audience an honest view of how so many of us tend to give up when we feel beat down by the system. But only those who are able to hope can recieve the results.

I don't regret that I spent my time whatching this movie. This film should be recommended to children ecpecially, because it's necessary for them to understand that all children have the same opportunities but all of them have different potential. Just need to encourage him or her to bring it about and use it with benefit, and this is their teachers who can help them to do it.
