What do teachers say?
“MTM is an invaluable resource that grabs students’ attention immediately. The short film format allows me to show a film (twice if necessary) and then have a discussion about it within a 35-50 minute class period. Watching the films have helped me to engage my students in deep conversations about current issues through journaling, class discussion, literary comparisons and personal connections.”
-Anne Gaspers, Spanish Teacher at Thornton High School, Thornton, CO
