5.0 out of 5 stars A Master Teacher's Genius Jan 26 2005
By M. F. Davis - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
How fortunate that Mr. Cullum had a talented friend in Robert Downey, Sr. who was skillful and sensitive to the magical moments fostered by an inspired teacher. The old black & white clips still capture the thrill children feel, when allowed to interpret information and learn from each other, while being guided by a teacher who wanted the very best for each of them.

The reunion at Rye, NY with some of his early students provided a thoughtful analysis of what his methods meant to them, and how they prospered under his tutelage.

I recommend that elementary & middle school teachers show this DVD at least once every year. It's that inspiring.

5.0 out of 5 stars NO MEDIOCRITY ALLOWED! Jun 4 2005
By NYGUY - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
This documentary is absolutely wonderful. Albert Cullum was a gift to education and his methods should be adopted by every teacher hoping to not only teach children but to change their lives.

There are too many kids these days who grow up without good reading skills and, oftentimes, no interest in reading whatsoever.

Our society is being dummed down by the minute. We need more teachers like Cullum to show us what is possible in each and every child.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everyone in education needs to see this film Jan 11 2005
By J. Shelton - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
I just watched this documentary on PBS (aired as part of the Independent Lens series) and it is both entertaining and touching. I am going to buy a copy for each person I know in education - it will give them a new energy about their position! The film is beautifully created as a documentary of the life of a teacher in NY during the 50's and 60's named Albert Cullum. The film features both recent and historical footage of him, including old classroom footage, teaching children and sharing his philosophies. His methods were innovative and creative - it is a real inspiration! [...]
