Join Education Nation and Helen Gym for a dialogue on "American Teacher"

by Helen Gym on Sep 25 2011

This afternoon at 4 p.m., I'll be on a panel for Education Nation reviewing a new documentary "American Teacher" and discussing sustainability in the teaching profession. The documentary focuses on the struggles of four teachers across the country to remain in a profession which loses almost half its teachers within five years. Locally the numbers for Philadelphia are even more serious, where the PFT says that more than 50% leave by their fifth year.

Expect a strong discussion with folks like Newsweek pundit Jonathan Alter, the teachers featured in the documentary and myself.

Education nation is the most important topic for the American teachers. They always want that every person join it for getting an education and I think they will become success in this work. I want to say that you are doing a very great job for the people.
