This paper presents Edith Stein as a teacher in order to position her philosophy of education and illuminate her outstanding praxis. In a crafted biography of teaching, I shall use her first-person accounts in Essays on Women bolstered by the best Stein biographies. Why is it so essential that scholars and the educational community know of Steinian education? For this reason: Stein’s philosophy of education resonates today because she insisted that teachers focus on the individual. To Stein, every student had a soul, was an individual, and warranted a teacher who was empathetic, qualified, and committed.
