“Education is a process of drawing out, not of driving in; that the child must be let free to develop spontaneously, directing his own efforts and choosing the branches of knowledge which he desires to study; that, therefore, the teacher, instead of imposing or presuming as authoritative his own opinions, predictions, or beliefs, should be a sensitive instrument responding to the needs of the child as they are at any time manifested.”
-Bayard Boyesen
