Resource For Your Source. Use Me to Become More You. I Aspire to Inspire.

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else

is the greatest accomplishment. Our chief want is someone who will

inspire us to be what we know we could be.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

“While we teach knowledge, we are losing the teaching 

which is the most important one for human development:

the teaching which can only be given by the simple presence

of a mature, loving person.” Eric Fromm

“He who understands the wise is wise already.

Once first step in wisdom is to question everything–

and one’s last is to come to terms with everything.” George C Lichtenberg

“First let a man teach himself, and then he will be taught by others.

There are many men who fancy they understand whatever they experience.

All truly wise thoughts have been thought already thousands of times;

to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly,

until they take root in our personal experience.

As soon as you trust yourself,

you will know how to live.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“Man is a God to Man.

The highest activity a human being can attain

is learning for understanding,

because to understand is to be free.

The more clearly you understand yourself and your emotions, 

the more you become a lover of what it is.” Baruch Spinoz

“What is freedom? The world to be responsible for ourselves.” Friedrich Nietzsche

“Liberty is the prevention of controlled by others.” John Acton

“What Humans must be, they can be. This work I call Self-Actualization.” Jack of All Free Trades

Responsibly Free School is Your Free Friend Tutor, Jack

I am a mature, adult, Self-Actualizing, Self-Directed Learner with a very wide range of Life and Learning experiences. I love Ideas and Learning and have been sharing (FreeEaching, rhymes with Teaching) my Free Mind since 1993 when I first started teaching in Adult Community Education in Queensland, Australia. From 2003 I have taught in China, Chile and now New Zealand.

My main audience will be those who value “Self-Directed Learning” and have chosen to learn outside of Government School Systems and Mainstream Corporations and Media.

I work with all ages (5 to 99+) and all beliefs (Religious to Atheist) including those for whom English is a non-native language.

View my Online sites, CV, and Criminal Record Check for my personal credibility.

Tutoring charges are $25NZD per hour or a weekly/monthly Subscription Service with the cost varying according to number of participants and frequency of meetings–both with a Pay-As-You-Can-Afford fee to be negotiated if required. No extra charge for downloads of all digital materials—yours to own.

I have my own Zoom account and I think you will find this a wonderfully interactive communication tool as I do. It will be like we are next to each other in person. Together we can play videos, visuals, PowerPoints and search the Internet to find the resources you most need.

My primary Learning Materials in the Five Disciplines come from:

Academy of Ideas; Tom Woods’ Liberty Classroom; Ron Paul Home School; The Montessori Foundation; Prager University;

The Voluntaryist; The Library of Economics and Liberty; Online Library of Liberty; Mises Institute; Foundation for Economic Education; Libertarianism; Reason; Jaak Panksepp; Nathaniel Brandon; William Glasser; Thomas Gordon; Prepare Enrich; Self-Determination Theory; Corbett Report; Transactional Analysis; The Alliance for Self-Directed Education; Alternative Education Resource Organization…among others.

For learning English: Linguahouse; One Stop English.
