Abstract
The primary objective of this paper is to theoretically explore the role of the educator as a guide for learners towards achieving moral autonomy, based on Antonio Millán-Puelles' work "The Formation of the Human Personality." First, it systematizes the contributions of the Spanish philosopher regarding the educator's task as a guide. Secondly, it examines the role of the virtue of prudence as a crucial skill for attaining moral maturity, as presented in Millán-Puelles' work. Thirdly, it argues for the fundamental role of the educator in the learner's acquisition of prudence, necessary for achieving moral autonomy. This article highlights the key role of the educator in fostering the learner's autonomy and advocates for strengthening the educator's role. This study not only sheds new light on the critical influence of educators but also emphasizes the transformative impact of their guidance on the moral development of learners.
