Abstract
Amanda Labarca was a renowned teacher that was born in 1886 and died in 1975. She was the first female university teacher in Chile. Her contribution and influence in psychology have been recently recognised. The objective of the present work is to show her personal and academic history by means of an evidence review, to provide a context for the socio-political period. Finally, her main psychological references, regarding the educational area, are described. Due to her frequent visits to USA, she was steeped in William James and John Dewey’s work, her main masters, to whom she admired and tried to spread their theories.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
