For Anna Chiara Sacchi
Thank you for the long and impassioned article" In praise of Prof. Gymnastics ".
I am a retired Physical Education teacher and I speak on behalf of The Argonauts (Association Culture and Sports), whose aim is to promote a new culture of sport and motor activity, and many others (but never enough) who share what you have shown in full. We are teachers of "Zompi" (as a time were called, although at that time a little 'Zompo you did, but now even more than!): Honestly, however, we believe the ranks of teachers who she calls " true "and, in a nutshell, we have always believed in our task and we continue to believe it.
She highlighted the potential teacher's capable, confident that the experiences of synergy between intellectual development, coordination and neuromotor emotional resonance facilitate and reinforce the integration of the ego. In other words, psycho-physical unity of which we talk so much, but, unfortunately, is not always experienced and lived. Our Italy, in fact, suffers from the lack of widespread distribution of education to the movement as an educational experience of the personality. Do not you realize that the movement of the very first record, is-according to many-organizing function of the ego and its relationship with the world (the opposable thumb of the first man made it possible in the future). The serious thing, and you have perfectly identified the problem, is that few teachers who understand the importance and, alas, among them also, and even more so, those of motor activity, hence the collective "the futility" of their / our teaching.
With sorrow we say this, but unfortunately this comes from a conscious experience in the field: our task has always been to transfer a study on movement that becomes a prerequisite for every sport, every governing body and especially the strengthening of self-esteem ("Basic Trust").
E 'common hope that you continue Through his efforts to pursue this training sector to highlight the correct value.
Thanks again.

Elogio del prof di ginnastica
Educazione (psico) fisica Da insegnante "Useless" to tutor teenagers
What special - one that does not just say "game then warming '- is instantly recognizable. He has a serious look at the edge of gruff. Brings the suit as a tuxedo. He knows the guys one by one (even though dozens of training classes), identifies the misconduct, that the rules of the team. A school is the most respected, the students love it. And when you need it there. Without judging. Praise the gym teacher. Magister Vitae, psychologist, social worker, coach. One that combines the best aspects of sport pedagogy, heart, talent. And a lot of passion.
never Authoritative and authoritarian, confident without being a friend. The secret is to "take the field," says Tullio Garagnani, 41, a teacher training institute Vallauri Carpi. Precarious Garagnani prof is one of those who can drag the whole school in companies that on paper seem impossible. As you enter the cricket between curriculum subjects, with lots of competition. He minimizes "It was an opportunity to integrate students in Pakistan." Then come back to talk about training, empathy, of teenagers who need to be understood and accompanied. "But with no overlapping of roles: I'm the teacher and the rest. They must be looking for me. Otherwise the educational process fails. " The school that becomes
gym. And vice versa. "We work on the game - still Garagnani -: you share the rules and accept the presence of an arbitrator. It is a training to become adults, to be with others. " No votes and no questions. Much more than just hours of physical education. And much more of a teacher certification skills. The "real" physical education teacher recognizes the student who is seen in overall fat, prevent bullying, listen to the emotional torments of a fifteen and fears of a young man in the dressing room said: "Prof, maybe it well, she understood, is too small. " It happens too. "In fact - Ends Garagnani - you become a psychologist. But the mobile phone number no, that's confidential. " If not a trip. "On those occasions, let me go. It is difficult to always be serious: the boys are very nice. "
and fragile. Especially the children. Mariateresa Pindilli knows that teaches gymnastics for 31 years the average Giorgio Perlasca Pietralata, rough neighborhood in Rome. "Here - he says - not about sport: my task is to ensure that these kids can have a normal relationship with their bodies: there are anorexic, the overweight, the complex. They are even hard to touch. " E then the prof Pindilli organizes courses in theater, juggling, mime to music goes from sex education. "I teach them not to be ashamed. My students know that I can ask any question. They can count on me. " Always. "Years ago a boy asked me to call her parents separated, groped for a final reconciliation. I called them. Obviously not made peace, but at least resumed their dialogue. " Other memories: "A grandmother begged me to hold his grandson to my house to protect him from a violent father. I hid for a couple of days, was taking a heavy responsibility. " And finally: "I did student to" strange "confidences. I spoke with the headmaster. To end we discovered that the father abused her. " The courage to teach gymnastics. And not only in social contexts degraded. Even in a school "up" in Milan, Vittorio Veneto high school science, physical education teacher to make the means to deal with tough guys, without points of reference only. It is the experience of Americo Gigante, 51, "mystery" of multipremiata volleyball team and athletic institution. "In a time when lack of political ideals, when families are absent and the educational agencies lam, the sport takes on a fundamental value." Giant's why we put it all to involve students in its activities. "I encourage them to do always better. " Of course, it is not easy. "Last year I had a class of pupils terrible, made me despair. Then, the last day of school, I took them to the park. We got to play. And talking. At that moment finally found a channel of communication. " The other day he accompanied a Giant anorexic girl in the hospital: "I do not want medals, it was right to do so."
The gym teacher. The good ones leave their mark. And not just because they are also the most dilapidated gym looks like a field to five stars. Are special. Point. Ask students to Claudio Monti, Milan teacher died in an accident Street to 47 years in May 2007. For his funeral the church was filled, "and there was all, believers and nonbelievers, because it was a reference, because the Parliament will hear," Corriere wrote to his student. On the Internet there is a forum dedicated to him. The last message says: "Up there they have done a bell'acquisto ... Cla crushes for me. "
