Impact of a good and caring teacher



There are moments in your life when everyone leaves you!
The hand that holds you at that time is the most cherished one..

This video beautifully depicts one such case: the story of Edwin and Mrs. Chong.
Its been released as a commercial and is based on a true story, and released by the Ministry of Education, Singapore.
