Overview
The Power to Save a Life
Jacob Chastain grew up in an environment filled with drugs and violence. Inside the home that should have felt safe fear and anxiety were the desperate norm. Stability and security eluded him as he was shuffled between family and friends that would take him in. But at school things were different. There day after day year after year Chastain’s teachers saved him.
Teach Me Teacher is the true story of a childhood marked by heartache—a story that may be similar to that of the children sitting in your classroom. It’s the story that shaped Jacob Chastain into the educator he is today. Lessons learned from his experiences as a child and as a growing educator offer reflections on the trials and triumphs facing teachers and students everywhere. From these lessons we learn that one’s darkest moments can ultimately lead to a meaningful and fulfilling life when someone cares enough to step in and make a difference.
Written in celebration of teachers and the power of education Teach Me Teacher affirms that you have the power to save a life.
