It was required reading for one of my education classes. I have to say that I loved this book. I was upset to see what Cohen had been through in his life and how people treated him. He was treated so meanly because of his Tourette's. He struggled to find a teaching job and then moved on to become a principal. From what I have read Cohen is an awesome man and was a great teacher who taught his students to think outside of the box. I would definitely recommend this book whether they want to teach or not.

As a child with Tourette syndrome, Brad Cohen was ridiculed, beaten, mocked, and shunned. Children, teachers, and even family members found it difficult to be around him. As a teen, he was viewed by many as purposefully misbehaving, even though he had little power over the twitches and noises he produced, especially under stress. Even today, Brad is sometimes ejected from movie theaters and restaurants. But Brad Cohen's story is not one of self-pity. His unwavering determination and fiercely positive attitude conquered the difficulties he faced in school, in college, and while job hunting. Brad never stopped striving, and after twenty-four interviews, he landed his dream job: teaching grade school and nurturing all of his students as a positive, encouraging role model.Front of the Class tells his inspirational story.
