John Caldwell Holt (1923-1985) was an American writer and educator known for advocating homeschooling, particularly through his approach of deschooling. After a six-year tenure in elementary education during the 1950s, he authored 'How Children Fail' (1964), which highlighted issues he observed within the American educational system. This was followed by 'How Children Learn' (1967), both of which gained popularity and established his consultancy career. By the 1970s, Holt shifted towards promoting homeschooling and initiated the newsletter 'Growing Without Schooling.'
