Publisher's Synopsis
""A Dominie Dismissed"" is a book written by Alexander S. Neill and published in 1917. The book is a memoir of Neill's experiences as a schoolteacher in Scotland. Neill was dismissed from his position as a dominie (a Scottish term for a teacher) due to his unorthodox teaching methods and his belief in the importance of individualism and freedom in education. The book describes Neill's struggles with traditional educational practices and his efforts to create a more student-centered and progressive approach to teaching. Neill's experiences offer insights into the challenges faced by educators who seek to challenge the status quo and promote innovative teaching methods. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education and the evolution of educational philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
