education and profession
Frickhöffer received his pedagogical training from 1807 to 1809 in the simultaneous teacher training college in Idstein and then taught at the school in Frücht . Out of interest in the teaching method of the Swiss school reformer Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi , he went in 1813 as a teacher at the school operated by him at Yverdon Castle . In 1815 Frickhöffer taught at the school founded by Heinrich Stammer and Johann Philipp Rossel in Koblenz , where the students were taught according to Pestalozzi's principles. In the following year he continued his education at the teachers' seminar led by Bernhard Gottlieb Denzel in Esslingen and then returned for a short time to the Pestalozzi he admired in Yverdon Castle. Finally he went to the educational institutions of the well-known Swiss pedagogue Philipp Emanuel von Fellenberg in Hofwil . In 1817 he was called by Gottlieb Anton Gruner , who was also a student of Pestalozzi, as the second teacher to the simultaneous teachers' seminar in Idstein. In 1825 Frickhöffer was awarded the title of vice principal. At the end of 1844 he was given early retirement for health reasons.
The standard work “ Guide to Arithmetic Lessons” written by Frickhöffer was used in teaching until the 1950s. Around 1900 the Frickhöfferstraße in Idstein was named after him.
