Innledning
Homeless Michael Oher, “big mike” was accepted into Wingate Christian School with 0.6 as GPA which is quite low.
The education he received at this private school was not only important if he wanted to go to higher education like college and universities, but also in overcoming difficulties that Michael had.
In this text I am going to explain how important the education was for Michael in overcoming different obstacles, and I am also going to write a bit about the US educational system compeered to the Norwegian educational system.
Utdrag
Because of his family circumstances he was unfortunately living around in different foster homes.
He one day ends up being enrolled in into Wingate Christian School, even though he had 0.6 as GPA.
Michael had different difficulties during this time. Most likely because he was homeless, and because of his earlier life.
Most of his teachers believe he was unteachable. He did not want to do his homework, he was unable to write during tests and he had a kind of childlike personality.
He was not with the children at his age, he was either with the younger children.
Mrs. Boswell his science teacher does not believe that he is unteachable. She understands that he learns in a different way, so she informs the other teachers.
He slowly, at the same time as he educates, starts to overcome different difficulties. He starts doing his homework, he learns to write, and start to receive better grades.
Because of the education he receives a best friend, S.J Tuohy, he slowly starts knowing people at his age as well, one of them is S.J sister.
Michael Oher is a quiet person at the start. But he later, probably because of the school, starts to communicate with different people more.
Michael love all sports who involves a ball, and was mostly excepted to the privet school because of the football coach’s wish for a player the size of Michael.
So, he starts playing football, but he was not able to get the hang of the game, and he also failed to cooperate with the team.
