Life and family

Franz Huber came from an old family of teachers. His grandfather and father and five of his brothers were teachers. He spent his early childhood in the village of Dietershofen, Illertissen district. He attended the one-class village school there for seven years. From an early age he helped his father as a steward to teach the more than 100 students at times. He also performed acolyte service in the village church. During this time he was shaped as a Christian Catholic for his life.

Franz Huber married the doctor's daughter Anna Schnatterer from Waal in 1923. The couple had two children in 1926 and 1929: Anneliese, later a foreign language secretary, and Franz Reinhold, later a graduate engineer. The family lived in Lauingen, in Munich-Pasing and the couple after the marriage of the children in the Munich retirement home Luise Kiesselbach , where Huber carried out family history research and was also chairman of the home advisory board.

Professional career

From 1900 to 1903 Franz Huber attended the preparatory school in Oberdorf (now the town of Marktoberdorf ) in the Ostallgäu district . This was soon combined with the institute of the same name in Lauingen to form a five-class teacher training institute, which Huber attended for two more years. From 1905 onwards, the assistant teacher at various rural schools soon matured the decision to look for his life's work in didactics, i.e. in the training of teachers.

So in September 1909 he applied to the Amberg teacher training college as a seminar assistant teacher . A little later the superior authority appointed him royal seminary assistant and in October 1910 royal. Preparation teacher.

As a prerequisite for a regular position in the higher service at a teacher training institution, Franz Huber had to complete a university course, which he began in 1913 in Munich . After the war began, Huber took a course as a nurse - his eyesight was not sufficient for infantry service - and from 1915 he helped as a medic in a typhus hospital. Despite his disability, he was drafted into the artillery in 1916 and last served as a vice sergeant and officer aspirant. He was awarded the Cross of Merit for Voluntary Sickness Aid, the Iron Cross, the Cross of Honor for Frontline Soldiers and the Badge for Wounded. When he returned from the field as a lieutenant in the Landwehr, he completed his university studies, after three semesters shortened for combatants.

From February 1919 on, Franz Huber worked at the teacher training institute in Lauingen, most recently as a teacher. In 1935 he was appointed to what was then the college for teacher training in Pasing, which later became the teacher training institution in Munich-Pasing. There he was entrusted with setting up a comprehensive library and taught as a lecturer, then as senior student adviser and professor with a focus on didactics (general teaching) and rural school education.

As a successful innovation, Franz Huber introduced the “farmer's holiday internship”, the later rural school internship for teacher students, which he oversaw extensively according to his motto “From practice for practice”. He also gave specialist lectures on teacher training in the monastic teachers' seminars in Ursberg , Wettenhausen and Kaufbeuren .

From 1925 to 1933 he worked on a voluntary basis as a city councilor and representative of the civil servants' association. Huber joined the NSDAP in 1933 , where he served as a local trainer in 1933/35. As a higher official and as a result of a denunciation, he was taken into " automatic arrest " by the American Counter Intelligence Corps on November 19, 1945 and spent eight months in the Garmisch internment camp in the former hunter barracks. Meanwhile, his family lost their home and had to move to an emergency shelter.

Rehabilitated as a “fellow traveler” he taught, retired from active service due to old age, as a lecturer from 1952 to 1957 at the teacher training institutes in Munich-Pasing and Freising, but still held individual lectures until the 1960s. He then devoted himself to his professional writing until about 1975 and in 1972 was still in charge of the 11th edition of his "General Teaching".
