THE CLASS A Life-Changing Teacher, His World-Changing Kids, and the Most Inventive Classroom in America

by | Read by Heather Won Tesoriero

Contemporary Culture • 12.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2018

Tesoriero narrates her story of a year in the life of Andy Bramante, a science teacher at Greenwich (Connecticut) High School whose skills have guided many students to major scientific breakthroughs and awards, as well as entry to prestigious colleges. The author's narration can be a bit choppy. She oscillates between a disinterested progression through the facts and emotive projection, particularly when vocalizing quotes from the many students whose journeys she shared. While her timbre is nasally, her overall delivery is clear--but often comes across as more focused on saying individual words and sentences correctly than on giving much thought to their meaning and weight.
