Temperament in Education
Also, Success in Teaching (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Temperament in Education: Also, Success in Teaching<br><br>The author lays no claim to be the originator of the facts concerning temperament. Most of these have been known for more than two thousand years. All he has tried to do is to bring together and present such admitted principles as can be used by those who wish to study children and improve themselves. The attempt is here made not to talk about temperament or talk at it, but teach it, as far as the printed page can be made to teach.<br><br>The simple reading of these pages will do very little good. Such use of them may serve to pass away an hour, but with little profit. The only way to make them of real educational value is to do exactly what is directed to be done. There is enough here outlined for six months' study, and at the end of that time whoever does the work will be on the way to know himself and those about him far better than ever before. It is a principle in psychology, that we cannot understand in others what we do not experience first in ourselves. The object of this paper is to give its students more intimate knowledge of themselves.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
