Front of The Class, 叫我第一名。

This is a true story.


"Front of The Class" is actually a book, titled: Front of The Class: How Tourette Syndrome Made Me The Teacher I Never Had. By Brad Cohen, co-authored by Lisa Wysocky.

Tourette's Syndrome is actually a sickness that cannot be cured. It is passed down through families, although the gene has not yet been found. Tourette's Syndrome causes people to make repeated, quick movements or weird noises that they can't control. These are called tics.

Nope, I didn't read the book.  -.- But I watched the movie! OMG thankiew to him! Brought me this movie early in the morning, and so sorry I just watch it. Believe me people, the movie is just too motivating and is a must to watch! Strongly recommend to those who has no confidence in themselves (like me D:) but after finish watching, :'D

Brad Cohen met a lot of obstacles. His movements and weird noises always made his dad get frustrated. But his mom did not give up on him. Every doctor said that Brad was very sad about his parents' divorce so he makes weird noises and those tics to get attraction. But who knows it would be Tourette's? His mom went to do research and found the answer. Every teacher asks Brad to shut up and don't distract his friends in class. No one believe that he actually cant help with the noises. He hate the noises too. So, he changed school. The principle changed his life. How? Watch the movie to find out the answer!

Not going to be spoiler, so watch the trailer, and the movie.

Tell me your response after finish watching this movie kay? :')

Chinese movie review for this movie from YouTube:

本片根據真人真事（Brad Cohen）改編，敘述患有妥瑞症的男孩努力達到成為老師的夢想，並且克服病症的故事。

小時候的布萊德經常不由自主地抽搐扭動、吠叫鬼吼，他的父親認為他只想引人注目，鄰居則說他被惡魔附身了。其他孩子嘲笑他，小學老師更要他站在教室前面向所有同學道歉，悲­慘的人生受盡羞辱。直到某天，校長知道這是一種神經性疾病的症狀，才幫助了布萊德獲得大家的理解和接納。因此，長大後的布萊德決定當個「自己從未碰過的好老師」，然而實現­夢想的道路如此艱鉅，他面試了24所學校，遭到冷嘲熱諷，終於在第25次的面試，成功得到一個機會，他是第一個當選全美最佳教師的妥瑞人。

布萊德．科恩在拍片現場告訴記者，這是一個關於『永不放棄』的故事。妥瑞症是一種身心障礙，科恩卻從不認為自己是殘障人士，他視妥瑞症為他一輩子如影隨形的朋友。他說..­."是妥瑞症教我成為我夢寐以求的好老師"
