Autorenporträt
John Holt (1923-1985) educator, author of ten groundbreaking books, and amateur musician was a leading figure in school reform and homeschooling movements. How Children Learn, and How Children Fail, sparked a movement by challenging traditional teaching methods. He observed that forcing children to learn made them unnaturally self-conscious, stifling their initiative and creativity as they focused on pleasing teachers with the "right" answers. Together these two books have sold over a million and a half copies and have been translated into over 24 languages. Holt also founded Growing without Schooling (GWS) in 1977, the first magazine published about homeschooling, unschooling, and learning outside of school. GWS remained influential in the global development of the homeschooling and unschooling movements until its closure in 2001. John Holt believed that schools failed to meet their mission and aimed to change the classroom dynamic and the relationship between students and teachers. His experience as a fifth grade teacher, an educational consultant, and a visiting lecturer at Harvard and Berkeley, showed him that schools were "a place where children learn to be stupid." Traditional teaching methods stifled children's creativity and initiative, making them focus on pleasing teachers and schools rather than learning. Ultimately, he became convinced that the school establishment was unable to change the relationship of the child to the teacher and the school to the community, which led him to advocate for unschooling, a type of child-led homeschooling where children are provided with a rich and stimulating learning environment and learn by following their own interests, at their own pace. Even after his death, Holt's legacy lives on through his work, which has inspired generations of educators and parents.
