From #1 bestselling authors Peter Mansbridge and Mark Bulgutch comes a collection of Canadian stories inviting us to celebrate the impact and influence of teachers and the students whose lives they have changed forever. Few people make more of an impact on young people’s lives than teachers. Parents, of course, are vital for a child’s future, but it is our teachers who choose to devote their daily lives to illuminating the world around them, selflessly spending their careers changing the trajectories of the young people in their charge. Teaching can be a thankless job, managing dozens of students in a rowdy classroom without the resources they often need to do their jobs properly. These homeroom heroes dedicate themselves not only to following the curriculum but to protecting their students, recognizing their struggles, intervening when necessary, and turning around those who for too long have found their needs unfulfilled, helping to make them into productive members of society and the leaders of our future. Many teachers recognize what they are up against on day one and look to the exit rather than their lesson plan, but most devote themselves to those in their charge. From elementary and secondary schools, to post-secondary and even in a hospital and prison setting, these stories will inform, entertain, and grab you by the heart. Through dozens of profiles of teachers, and some students, Canada’s most authoritative news voice, Peter Mansbridge, along with veteran journalist Mark Bulgutch, recount true stories of teachers on the front lines of this vital profession, as they contend with students’ challenges with course material, their mental health, language skills, their sexuality, and many other matters. Mansbridge also invites readers into his own past experiences with the teachers who helped shape his life. A Noble Profession celebrates the experiences of teachers and students. This book makes for an ideal gift for any teacher in your life and any students and parents who want to understand the challenges and witness the triumphs in the classrooms that dot the country.
