biography
Blendermann was the son of a master tailor. His father died early. So he came to the reformed orphanage. He was probably promoted by the Reformed pastor Johann Ludwig Ewald from the Stephanikirche Bremen , who was very much connected to the Pestalozzian educational method.
Blendermann was initially assistant to a teacher and then a teacher at the Ewald and Häfeli founded town school . 1802/03 he worked with Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi , at his famous educational institute in Burgdorf Castle in Burgdorf in the canton of Bern . In a report it says: “He seems to be able to breathe the joy of playing into the method, which it still needs so much for the youngest age… Blendermann is now working, together with Pestalozzi and Krüsi, this connection of the formation of nature that instincts assures the mature child that it will last, and that it will be secured at the point in time of the beginning art formation just as nature secured it at the point of instinct formation. "
For a short time, at the age of 20, due to his excellent references, he was already a teacher at the Paedagogeum in Bremen and at the orphanage. Here he uses the Pestalozzian methods as a pioneer in Bremen. Since 1807 he worked at the institution of the pedagogue Johann Ernst Plamann , the Plamann educational institution in Berlin.
In 1809 he returned to Bremen and was again a teacher at the pedagogy . Senator and later mayor Johann Smidt , a supporter of the Pestalozzian methods, promoted the young reform pedagogue. In 1814 he founded a private school with around 100 students in preparation for attending the school of learning or action school in Bremen. When preschool was introduced at the Hauptschule in Bremen, which was founded in 1817, he gave up his private school in 1817 and became a teacher at this preschool. In 1857 he retired. His services are based on the theoretical and practical examination of Pestalozzian pedagogy.
