Mr. Keating was a good teacher, however I did feel that he had no regard for the structure that the students were used to. He wanted the kids to think for themselves which is something I completely support, but it seemed as though he was steering them in a direction of defiance. Ms. Gruwell was a good teacher as well, but she left me to wonder if her methods were all together correct; I am not sure if they would be able to handle a normal structured teaching environment. Both teachers cared for their students. Both used alternative methods. So the students would enjoy learning. Both teachers helped students outside of the classroom. Both pushed students to succeed.
Mr. Keating and Ms. Gruwell were both good teachers. They were dedicated, they cared about their students, and they were both willing to adjust their curriculum so they could involve all of their students.
