The true story of an educational champion, Marva Collins, who created a school in her house and changed the lives of hundreds of young people. (Feat. Morgan Freeman as Clarence)
www.EducationOptionsExpo.org
Its amazing, Cicely Tyson portrayed Marva Collins and Morgan Freeman portrayed Joe Clark--- both are needed in 2023 for the School System
It is a beautifully produced movie and Marva Collins's story and achievements are outstanding.
Since years I am trying to get humane programs into schools. It is totally ignored, sadly. I don't know who else to turn to! I am writing letters to the United nations, our Governor, the Senators, the US president. I did not receive a response, yet. I continue against the odds that appear enormous. Humanity is at great risk and I do all I can to bring awareness about human values. I write books, do workshops and the tipping point will come. I am certain. Much love to all ❤
Sincerely,
Daisy
You can say that again! 😆😆😆😆
@@MissSelfrecoding your heart is good and the tipping point is soon , hold onto your seat ;D
Thank you, for your encouraging words. Much needed and very welcomed. ❤
@@veganvocalist4782
You are doing the right thing. Best of luck@@MissSelfrecoding
Great women (Marva Collins) portrayed by a great actress (Cicely Tyson). RIP to both and thank you for doing something positive for Black Americans.
😊😅😅😅
What a wonderful caring loving teacher, leaving a rich legacy for future generations. God bless her, her loving husband and children. J. S..Mitchell
why for black only, see you put yourself on the other side.. U should saind just for AMERICA
Man I'm crying 😢 I wish I had teachers like her going to school I would've graduated.
I cry 4 or 5 times every time I watch this too
La queremos en español
We had teachers like that here in London, England in the 1980's. Great teachers that would make you feel special and who you could form a bond with.
I'm a homeschooling mother and This story of Mrs. Marva collins was so inspiring and encouraging to my soul, it reminded me of the importance of why I'm homeschooling my children.. R.I.P Mrs. Marva collins...I just Thank the lord Jesus Christ for calling me to be a mother and blessing me to be able to teach my children, because I can do all things through Christ that strengthen me philippians 4:13 ❤
You’re doing very important work!
Amen!
I love that you get the opportunity to spend time feeding into your family’s education. It’s a privilege to have that experience 🙏🏽❤
I meet Dr. Collins years ago. We talked and cried together in my school office. She’s an amazing, loving, extraordinary educator person; that I ever known. I Love this lady❤️! Great movie.
Oh, I would love to get in touch with you and speak about programs that are brain-friendly and easy to learn and apply. Please, reach out to me! I am easy to be found based on my name. I look forward to speaking with you. Sincerely, Daisy
I love Marva Collins, for the work she did, and Cicely Tyson for how she beautifully played her.
They should give Marva Collins, Teacher of the Century. How she took those kids the school system labeled hopeless, and brought them success, even showing they were 5years ahead of their school age, in testing. She did remarkable work, and is a role model, to me. A very good one.
TE TENGO ENVIDIA DE LA BUENA LASTIMA QUE YO NO TUVE UNA PROFESORA ASI EN SERIO
🎉🎉 exactly
Thank God I went To this school. We miss you Mrs. Collins
Really? Tell us your stories! Did you ever meet Mrs. Collins? What was the school like?
no me censures QUE PRIVILEGIO TUVISTE
This is a woman who had the LOVE of GOD in her heart. Mrs. Collins turned down a position as the U.S. Secretary of Education to stay at this prepatory school. Awesome testimony of love for your community.
Really? I can understand why she turned it down, but she should have taken the position.
She new if she had taken that high level position she would nor do nothing for black children as white supremacy would be running that area
@@itsjemmabond no its good she never took it as white supremacy control that area she just be taking orders and white supremacy won't put agendas forward for black children
@@itsjemmabond that probably would mean she wouldn't teach anymore.
Department of education, pedophiles teaching kids how to be pedophiles. Can't do,the three R's anymore.
Literally in tears. Being a retired assistant principal at a small private low income school her passion resonates in my heart and what we were also trying to accomplish with our children.
Everyone needs to see this movie.
ONE OF THE BEST TRUE STORIES I'VE EVER SEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF THE WORLD HAD MORE TEACHERS LIKE THIS, IT SURLY WOULD BE A DIFFERENT PLACE!!!!
agree
For sure
Yes we are rare.
Amen to that❤
So true
A woman who walked in excellence and expected the same from her students.
Thanks for being a bright shiny light.
Im gonna watch this everytime i feel like forgettingcwhy I chose to be a teacher!
I remember well when Marva Collins became a name. I remember the 60 Minutes program where she was interviewed and shown in action at her school. It was so great. But folks, her minority children who the EXPERTS said could not learn embarrassed the Public education system in that city. They came after her. I encourage everyone impressed with this wonderful lady to read the rest of the story.
I lived in Chicago when this beautiful woman opened her own school, her style of teaching should be implemented today and onward!!!! 2023++++
She was a living proof by breaking all the barriers she faced with the support from her husband. What a teacher she was.
With her husband
I love how her husband was so supportive towards every decision she made.. I want a husband like that
Lindsey Smith
yes lord
U can see how much faith she had in God all so trust by her trust in the Lord their would have never been a great husband. Thank the Lord for both of them and all the other family, friends who also support them. Each one of us has a great gift to use.if we trust JESUS.
Absolutely right, everyone needs support to go on their way and achieve their goals. But we should keep dreaming and striving for what we believe in even if we haven't found that supportive person. We should be strong enough and try our best!! ✨

Yes! I thought that too and me too, lol!
Is anyone else catching up on Ms. Cicely Tyson’s movies since she passed yesterday? This is a great movie and wonderful tribute to Mrs. Collins as well! Watching on 1/29/2021.
Me
Yep Just did Ms. Jane Pittman
Rip
Yes
Marva. Collins was opening doors for these children who were not getting the proper education through other schools. She had her own methods of teaching. Bless her and the kids she taught ! R. I. P. Mrs. Collins , you had a heart of gold and understanding for learning. Cicely. Tyson was a wonderful actress in all the movies she has starred in.
nothing but tears. Why can't there be more teachers like this to show more interest in kids with learning disabilities. I believe that a child with disabilities just want to be given a chance and have someone to show that they care
School would be a happy place to be if all teachers were like her ....I love her
💜💥
She wasn't restricted in talking about God and giving the children a sense of their great value in His eyes! Love works miracles.
Love + hard work = Marva Collins. Above average because she cared enough to give it her all.
She is really amazing. The best thing that I learned from her is that, as a teacher, do not give up on students whose attitudes may seem to be troublesome. And above all, teach with love, hard work and dedication. I salute her!
The goose bumps I just got along with the years in my eyes are impartially because of you. Thank you for being you🌹🌹🌹
I grew up with rough parents so I get this but I wasn't growing up like that.
Amen
Amen and Amen!!❤
@@allinonedreamer8137I’m sorry. God loves you
I am here while reading Cicely Tyson's book. I have done so many TH-cam and Google searches to see faces of people of the names she mentions in her book or to search events she speaks of. She truly lived a full and interesting life. I am so immersed in her book with every page. Rest In Peace MS. Cicely Tyson.
Could you please tell me the name of Ms. Cicely Tyson book 📖
Cecily Tyson and Morgan Freeman: great combo!
Powerful
WOW that's what i call real teacher ! if only were more teachers like Mrs Collins today the world would be much better!
You need to shut up cuz you don't even know how to talk to you did you ever talk teacher no you did it
@George the problem is still that the system ties the hands of good teachers and promotes simply teaching to the state standard test. This is not productive.
True
Teachers need to be paid more money!!
Back then there was discipline now the students are disrespecting and abusing the teachers! They can not teach anything because the students are running amok in the classroom!
There should be more teachers like MRS Collins Her students were blessed.
Marva Collins came to speak in my town of Rochester NY many years ago. Most of the teacher's in the audience were intimidated by her. But Marva was a beautiful real human being.. I found it a pleasure to speak with her. After being abused in foster care (uncare) along with being mistreated by teachers, God I wish I had a teacher like her. Love raises people up, and that's just what Marva did.
I wish I would have had a teacher like her. It's ridiculous where I live in California. Children at all grade levels are failing, can't read, write, or do math. These people aren't stupid, it's the bureaucrats, the regulations. Mrs. Collis was right, so why can't we incorporate what she has done into all public schools? Don't tell me they need more money, she taught these children on a shoe string, they learned, while increasing the kids confidence.
I Love Films like this!! they portray Our people in a "Positive light" making a difference!!!!!!
Amen! Thank you Jesus! All the glory goes to Him ... our lord and savior!
If it wasn’t for our movements a lot of them wouldn’t exist
Island Girl well black race need a teacher like this movie shows but let’s face it white America didn’t let no way forward for black broken America that had each planned dream broken by white America domination America needs many black teachers as team work but sadly black race are working for the white race still freedom and rights for black America & black Canada still isn’t over
RIP Marva Collins, 1936-2015.
God bless you, for showing that self-esteem WITH education is paramount to success!
I wish you could have been my teacher.
***** She can. Watch her videos. Read her words. Many of our mentors have passed 50-5,000 years ago. This movie is a great place to start. I cried 3 times in this movie. ;)
Education Options TV Oh I'm familiar with her story and her work, :) I've even told people who are themselves educators on just how important it is that you must educate while giving students a sense of purpose. That happens to be the original plan that even American Founding Father Dr. Benjamin Rush, who is considered, "The Father of American Education," as he advocated on just how education should be implemented. And I say this as someone who wasn't taught that during my school years.
Marva Collins Was a amazing teacher
Marva Collins was a amazing teacher
Thank you Jesus! Without you there would not have been truly caring and dedicated teachers like Marva Collins! The price Jesus payed for our sins on the cross is the very source of this magnificent love and fortitude. Marva is simply Marvelous! And Jesus as our Lord and savior is at the head of it all!! All glory goes to Him!
This was SO inspiring to me when I was growing up, because I saw the same things she was challenging, being a student in the NYC public school system myself. She was such a FORCE for change and Tyson was SO BRILLIANT in her portrayal.
As a teacher I am inspired by Ms Marva Collins and I believe that all kids have the potential of achieving anything they want...
❤
I'm a teacher's aide through my school and dejectedly I can relate to this movie.
I like this because a label isn't the full focus the able is.
I’m here because a professor of positive psychology mentioned her in his lecture. He also recommended her book, saying it’s the one book for anyone looking to become a teacher or a parent.
Sherry XC I want to be a teacher even though I have Autism
😔😁
I'm only 16 but I'm not going to give up
I'm gonna learn how to do this and then I'll try to make it work
@@veenasmainplace3463 Goodluck, you can do that just believe and trust in yourself especially to God. I'm supporting you😇🙏
My prayer is that Chicago neighborhoods become a beacon of Marva Collins schools of excellence. All children can learn🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
You know its a good movie when morgan freeman is in it.
Right ❤
Yes❤
I was deeply inspired by the movie. As an educator that's what I strive to be, like Marva Collins.
God bless Marva Collins a strong black woman
such an amazing woman. I wish the system taught children the way she did. She didn't just teach them , she taught them they are worth it, they are loved and believed in, and that they matter. This is what children need to be taught, in order to be able to learn.
Marva Collins was an amazing teacher
She was beyond a great teacher! And her husband was beyond supportive! Beautiful movie!
As a teacher myself I am always amazed and impressed by this dedicated teacher ...I also believe ....students will rise to the level which you give them ....God Bless this incredible teacher
I didn't.
Thank you for your dedication...
3 more amazing teacher shows are, The Ron Clark Story, Freedom Writers, and Front of the Class!
I was so far behind even in Special Ed. I'm shocked I graduated high school at all.
Dejectedly there's a lot of work in teaching that needs revision too.
As i prepare to go back to school on Monday i decided to watch a movie for inspiration and came across Marva Collins . Although i teach preschool it was just what l needed.
What's rather sad is that (according to Wikipedia) "Collins and her daughter ran the school for more than 30 years until it closed in 2008 due to lack of sufficient enrollment and funding." I'd like to thank the owner of this TH-cam channel for uploading this movie thereby making it publicly accessible. I think I needed to hear the quote at 12:25 in the wee hours of the morning: “Quitting did not build the Sears tower. Nor did it write the Magna Carta.”
Then it was probably a lot to rent or buy a building.
My grandparents were born then so this is probably something that may have been familiar to them.
The black community stopped wanting excellence for their young and succumbed to victimization and blame. That"s why enrollment dried up.
Took me 23 years to look her up . My old elementary teacher use to quote her all the time!
Why would it takes 23 years to look up information? What do you mean by that?
My Teacher Miss Montgomery use to make us recite a poem by her everyday
@@Michelle-pn9xt I assume the person meant that even though they heard of her, they didn't get around to finding out more about her and her story until 23 years later.
@Michelle-pn9xt I assume they didn't have access to the Internet at the time. We only got Internet in 1996. Given this story is from the late 70's the OP could have been educated in the 80's,90's or early 00's and only thereafter could find out more information
we need teacher like this
eso es cierto asi cambiamos EL SISTEMA DE EDUCACION EN EL.MUNDO
Wow! I am truly moved by this movie. Mrs. Collins marriage is one that all should strive for. The drive, passion, desire, and love help make her school a success. Very rare to find these days. Powerful movie!
A classic and inspiring movie. Cicely Tyson was flawless
I just got done watching a different movie she was in.
I really didn’t expect for this story to have such a profound effect. I found myself teary eyed the majority of the movie. Such passion from one woman for hers and others as well ❤
I agree it was a awesome movie it also surprised me she was a wonderful gifted special teacher ❤
Same for me.
I was going to take a nap, best way to get back pain to ease up. But nope, I am all in!😂😂 Can't wait till later to finish, but I may watch agian!😂😂❤
Wow! I was born and raised in this neighborhood and knew nothing about her. As a senior in college I am just now learning. What an inspiration.
Who is watching this incredible movie in Feb 2019😊
I REMEMBER watching this when I was very young on television...I couldn't have been more than 4 at the time and yet it stuck with me and I remembered who Mrs. Marva Collins was. Now all these years later, I work at a museum and my partner teaches in high school. Mrs. Collins's story is still part of why I love educating and I hope that she knows what a difference she made.
I hope you marry your partner
Amazing woman...she really reflected the love,compassion and patience of Christ. Bought tears to my eyes.
These Children Learned More Than All The IPhones And Computers Combined
As a Teacher myself , she is truly an inspiration to me!!! GOD BLESS MRS. COLLINS. RIP
Blessed Servant I know your another Marva Collins God Bless You❤️
She is not dead
In what ever happened she still smiles and hug and even kiss the students 😍
We teachers aren't allowed to hug and kiss pupils these days!
What an amazing teacher. This reminds me of so many teachers today who have left the public school and started free or inexpensive homeschool coops, along with the parents who have also pulled their kids out of public schools to homeschool. So many of us thought we were supposed to bring public school home, but instead we learned to teach how our kids do their best learning, along with the teachers who left the school system, and we learned that we did not have to have a degree to teach children. We just had to love our children, teach them that anything is possible, and learn with them.
I was moved in tears what a great teacher and educator, what an inspiration indeed......
I love how she inforced the education of children back in the day even when people put her down she still had a smile while teaching
💟💝💝💝🙏
A Teacher Is A Parents Assistant In Every Way.
Oh wow! I am so lost of words how to describe this movie. All I can say is I am glad I got the chance to watched it.
what an amazing lady.. this movie needs to be shown in every school, all kids need to know just how beautiful they truly are.
reikibee every teacher should watch this
When Tina stood up at the end and gave her speech I cried hard 😘👍🏽😢😢😢😢
I can relate to her i deal with a learning disorder and I had no help.
“Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.”
― Victor Hugo
I love this movie it's truly emotional and teaches a lot of moral lessons.
I got teary-eyed watching this part! Whew!
I wish all teachers have watched it.It's truely inspiring n educative
Here I am🙋
💟💟💟💝
True
I'm no teacher, but I think you should've typed the sentence below.
I wish all teachers would watch this. It's truly inspiring and educational.
;)
It's been so long since I've watched a movie that left me feeling happy and inspired! God bless Marva Collins and the students she taught to succeed!
I was so taken back by this woman's determination and drive she had for all the children in her community.
I was made aware of this film by "Ultimate Confidence", a book by Marisa Peer, who mentions it in the beginning. So glad I watched it. Very inspiring and uplifting.
I had to revisit this movie because of cicely tyson passing. What a inspiring film 🎥. May your spirit expand through the universe shining light on us.
I feel the problem today , in the school system is parents don’t work together with the teachers . The parents actually threaten the teachers and encourage their own children to disrespect the teachers and staff ..
Wow! I’ve never watched such a movie 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️ I love each and every single part of it ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
This is one of the most inspiring movies.The most dedicated teacher with high hopes, patients, love and motivation. We find them very rare in the universe.
You got that right. We need a lot of teachers like her in every school around the world now
Can you help me if you know the name of the teacher who says "why do you bother Mrs. Collins? The kid`s nothing but trouble"?
I mean what's his name in this movie?
Why was it's not in theaters? One of the best movies I've ever seen in my life! So inspiring❤ May she RIP
It should be in theaters in 2020 as part of the curriculum and a class trip.
December 2019,watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲
I can't wait to go to Jamaica
RIP ms. Tyson :(
This movie made me so emotional. To have a teacher to care like that is a blessing. I only wish I had a teacher like her coming up.

If only all of our teachers could be like Marva! Teaching is one of the most important jobs that exists and yet teachers are unappreciated, underpaid and are rarely recognized for their work. I know for me I had a few who truly changed the path of my life for the better. I will always be thankful for them. Great movie!
I SURE COULD HAVE USED A TEACHER LIKE THIS WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL
My music teacher was as close as I can remember to this teacher...
I'm a mess 😢 what an excellent movie. May God bless these children wherever they are. The teacher was or is an amazing person. God bless her.
My mom made my sister and I watch this while growing up! I’m forever grateful.
Praise the Lord for dedicated teachers like Marva Collins
What a heartfelt movie to inspire teachers who desire to make a difference in childrens lives. If teachers desire to make a difference in the lives of children...the world would be a better place. This movie inspires me to want to make a difference. Thank you Mrs. Collins
NaTHaN. Unique. Love you. Hay. 🌼🌼🌼🌼🍒🍒😊🌹😊sxe
She was so merciful when that window was broken. "Blessed are the merciful for they shall receive mercy" in Jesus name 🙌
I was so emotional watching the passion and love she had teaching her children . Best movie ever
This is very beautiful picture. This shows that anything is possible with Gods help and there is nothing impossible in life especially with God . Praise God and thanks be to God.
Praise God and May God bless Marv Collins.
It’s sad that little boy’s mother jealousy ruined his chances. 😥🤦🏾♀️
Danielle Luma yep and then couldn’t get back in when she realized that the “normal” school system wasn’t doing anything for him
Amazing movie! Wish that all the teachers will teach like that.
This is a great movie she is the best teacher ever I thank God that she never gave up on them beautiful 🤗 children May she R.I.P in peace great job well done I'm glad I watched this movie it reminds me to never give up on anything that I want to do in life thanks for sharing this with us May God continue to bless you 🙏
A very inspiring movie.
We can all see the determination of these teachers but all their efforts are uplifted by their super supportive husbands.
I’ve never seen this movie till today, I wish it was shown in school. REst in peace to this beautiful strong educated woman! It start with the children, you was everything a child need in life At Least once. Thank you for your strong heart mind and soul👸🏾
As a early childhood educator. This story just blessed my soul
Cicely Tyson always made you feel that character. She is an amazing actress. This movie was so inspiring.. Thank you for posting it.
seriously
who cares
thats great
this is how I feel about my students. Now, my situation is different. I teach a Toddler classroom but, many of the parents don't care, let their children misbehave and do teach them to be a citizen of the world. I've had foster kids, kids that arnt bathed , who have diaper rashes so bad by sometimes bleed. I make it my porpoise to make sure that I love them, that I know they can learn and they are important. Maybe I will never be as great as Marva Collins but I do understand the love she had for her class. In my heart my kids are my babies and I love them and will guide them to know right from the start learning, self value and knowing they are supported will hopefully understand that even later in life to have a thirst for education and a teacher that loves them. A year in my room....forever in my heart
Sure very happy to hear you your another Marva Collins God Bless You ❤️
I have not heard of Mrs Marva Collins. I really enjoyed watching this movie it's very motivating movie. Need more teachers like this.
Cicely Tyson reigns Supreme in everything she does 😇
Wonie Blue16 Everything 💖
I can only imagine what would have occured if she had accepted the position in education for the USA. Man, we would be something. But I understand her wanting to pursue her passion and be directly involved with her community.
A WONDERFUL AND INSPIRING MOVIE OF SELFLESS LOVE.
40:30 "Welfare is just another word for SLAVERY." Excellent.
And that is why this story would never be on screen today. The truthful statement about slavery goes against the narrative poor children are supposed to hear in govt. schools.
How I wish every teacher is like her . I have nothing to say but shes just so amazingggg
tHIS MOVIE WAS EXCELLENT AND A TEAR JERKER FOR ME. iF ONLY WE STILL HAD TEACHER AROUND LIKE THIS THAT REALLY LOVE OUR CHILDREN NO MATTER THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN.
Tina made me cry with her poem recitation in the end! Beautiful Story
