Carpe Diem

       One of the best movies that I have ever seen is Dead Poets Society. The film tells the story of a traditional college for men (Welton Academy), where the treatment is hard and with many rules. This school receives an ex-student, John Keating (Robin Williams) to be a new literature’s teacher. However, his teaching methodology is quite different from the other teachers, instigating his students to not just absorb knowledge, but pick it up and question him. With his talent and wisdom, Keating inspires his students to pursue their individual passions and make their lives extraordinary. The change in student behavior causes families’ reaction with terrible consequences. This movie was made in 1989 and for me is one of the most thought-provoking movies that I have ever seen. For this reason, if you no yet had the opportunity to see, I recommend.

  2. "O Captain my Captain!" I haven't seen this movie for a long time, but I still remember some of the scenes and lines. It really was a great movie (especially for teachers!)

    Corrections:
    ...to be a new literature teacher. (without the possessive)

    For this reason, if you haven't yet had the opportunity to see it, I recommend it.

    (Overall, the grammar and sentence structure are very strong!)
