I wonder who among us had an education like this. I certainly didn't. But as a shot of hope in the arm for the future, this short documentary is worth every minute.
This has been linked before, but long ago, and was worth a re-post.
Mr Kanamori teaches a class of 10 year olds. We witness him interacting with his students across a school year. Wow, these kids are amazing. And he is amazing. I found it profoundly moving. His favourite word is 'bonding'. That's what he's teaching here, and he's a master at his craft. I learned that there's more, so much more, to education than just facts and figures and books.
I believe the children of today hold the world of tomorrow in their hands. The answer to creating a more peaceful, more compassionate world, lies with them and them alone. And what a wonderful start to that journey these kids were given under Mr Kanamori's tutelage and guidance. I only wish all schools and all teachers were like this...
