John Holt: Unschooling in America (part 1)

Who is John Holt?
John Holt is an American educator and author who promotes the idea of "Unschooling". Unschooling is student-led learning: the student learns what needs to be learned at the time it needs to be learned. When's that? Well, it depends upon the individual learner, of course. Try reading his book: "How Children Fail", if you have even an ounce of compassion, you should find this book invaluable.
