He was being honest about not cheating in Spanish class.

If you cheat on a test, you both could get a f and both fail. You should never copy off of anyone because they may not have the right answer and better for you to try on your own.

i am a teacher and love the videos posted. Would like to use them for my life orientation lessons but we do not have internet access at school. Is there a way i could download the videos and use on a laptop to teach. There is just much value in these ads which will certainly make my lessons more meaningful.

Isabelle Torres from Philippines DECEMBER 11, 2013
I like the fact that the teacher was pregnant. It was like a message to her soon-to-be newborn. It symbolizes how we all want our children to be honest.

Malaika Mustipher from Georiga OCTOBER 23, 2013
I liked that video alot, because I think it was very clever and smart of that kid to pass a note telling him not to cheat rather than giving him answers to the test.

We receive AFN TV here in Okinawa... Armed Forces Network Most of their commercials- they call them spots- are horrible, and they play the same ones over & over. We hit the mute or change channels. HOWEVER, this commercial is absoutely beautiful. My wife and I love watching it again & again. The setting, the expressions, the perfect way to get a message across- and the teacher is pregnant! Wonderful! I've been an elementary teacher for 40 years, 37 in the DoDDS system. I just watched it again, probably have seen it more than 75 times, and I just had to let you know how much we love it. Please let the folks who created that commercial know we love their work, it's perfect. I hope the teacher ( amazingly beautiful ) delivered a healthy, perfect baby. So great, so,so very wonderful. Thank You!

Connie R from California FEBRUARY 20, 2013
I love this video. It happens at my math class and instead of just cheating, we have to move seats to not cheat or talk to elbow partners when the test is out. Usually the person who's elbow partner's absent on the test day are lucky because they don't have to move seats. The person who is absent on a test day was lucky because they have even more time to study.

leo from Montana NOVEMBER 16, 2012
When I was a kid growing up, the temptation to cheat was really great because first I am not a smart person, I have a slow learning disability and take a bit of time to learn things and most times I don't understand things from the off. So when I had a test, I really became confused alot, and most times, couldn't get the answer so I would guess. One time before a test, a friend told me about the machine which we would use to see if our answers were right. For the 80's it was a great machine because the teacher would program the computer with a master card and then the students would then enter their answer card. The machine would read the card, tally the right to wrong answers, and then give the score and grade for that test. My friend had figured out how to program the machine which was just a button on the back that when pressed as you insert the master card in. He had used it before to give himself an A, and told us kids about it. I got up the the machine and was about to reach back of the machine and I stoped because I really had a bad feeling about it. I entered my card and surprised that I actually had an 85% right for a B+. The next kid he got caught cheating using the program button on the machine. He got 5 days suspension and the machine was then taken out of the room and only the teacher used it. It was a shame, because having the machine and having us do our own scoring, meant that the teacher trusted us, and that gave us integrity. Once that trust is broken, its nearly impossible to get back. Like feathers being scattered in the wind, it will take a long time to ever gain them back. Thank you for making these great commercials that tell us all that it is better to have character then to be a character in life. "What profits a man to have money and wealth, but lose his soul" (paraphrased)

Mykeldiz from Ghana OCTOBER 6, 2012

Mary from Ohio JULY 28, 2012
Realy great commercial! And to answer the ? that keeps popping up, this is from the soundtrack to the movie "Chocolat" (excellent movie) and it is called "Vianne Sets Up Shop". It was written by Rachael Portman.

Stephanie B.R. from LA MAY 30, 2007
I wish I would have thought of saying that when my friends asked me for answers in Elementary. I said no and they said I was being mean. I tried to explain, but they asked someone else who gave the answer and both of them got caught. Later they said I just didn't want to get in trouble. They were half right, I didn't want THEM to get in trouble. It didn't work out that way though.
