  Jean Henri Pestalozzi (1746-1827), a follower of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, was a Swiss pedagogue and educational reformer, using a sympathetic approach in educating the whole child.

Pestalozzi exemplified Romanticism in his teaching approach. He founded several educational institutions throughout Switzerland, publishing several texts explaining his revolutionary principles of education.

Pestalozzi's motto: "Learning by head, hand and heart."

Due to the selfless efforts of Pestalozzi, illiteracy in Switzerland was overcome almost completely by 1830.
