What are some inspirational teachers from pop culture?

So I'm having to make a list for one of my classes about inspirational teachers from pop culture i.e. movies, books, tv shows, etc. One example is Mr. Miagi in Karate Kid. Can anyone think of some more?

Robin Williams as the teacher from "Dead Poets Society." Can't think of the character's name.

    The Knights of South Bronx it is a very inspirational movie.
    A business man decides that he wants to teach school in the inner city and chooses a tough school in the South Bronx. He teaches the children how to play the game of chess, and along the way they learn a lot about life
    It was a TV movie in 2005.
