John Holt Quotes

He Said That After Reading The Book He Realized That His Graduate Students Were Using On Him, And Had Used For The Ten Years And More He Had Been Teaching There, All The Evasive Strategies I Described In The Book - Mumble, Guess-and-look, Take A Wild Guess And See What Happens, Get The Teacher To Answer His Own Questions, Etc.
