The Teachers: A Year Inside One of America's Most Heartbreaking, Uplifting, Important Professions by Alexandra Robbins

challenging emotional funny inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

As someone who has worked closely with public schools in the past, I was surprised at my capacity to be surprised from some of the stories and testimonials shared in this book. The things that happen to teachers will make your jaw drop. Great reporting of the challenging conditions that teachers face. It certainly inspires you to get involved in some way. I found the writing style to be lacking; since this was narrative nonfiction, I think the narration of the three teacher stories was a little plain could have been bumped up with more description.
