Montessori - Entrepreneurs in the Making

Jeff Bezos was a Montessori child -- and became one of the most successful entrepreneurs in history. Is there a connection between early Montessori education and later success in business? Our guest today, the ed-tech entrepreneur William Kelly, thinks there can be, if an individual chooses such a career path for his or her life. And Will himself is proof, being a former Montessori child who now attributes much of his success as an adult to his Montessori schooling. from The Montessori Eduction Podcast with Jesse McCarthy,  https://www.montessorieducation.com/podcast/montessori-entrepreneurs-in-the-making #montessori #life

Education as a Help to Life - Maria Montessori

In the aftermath of the atrocities of WWII, Maria Montessori gave a speech. Given the current state of the world, especially with the recent horrific attack on Israel -- really on all civilized human beings -- her talk is well worth hearing. "... the monster does not come to life all of a sudden. It is not created in one moment, in one hour, in one week, even in one year."

The Reality of Public School (vs Montessori)

“I always thought I’d send my kids to public school. But I’m probably not going to do that now.” Andrew, who understandably didn’t want to share his last name for this discussion, has been an elementary school teacher for the past 10 years. But he’s recently started to question if what he and his public-school colleagues are doing is actually helping students — or holding them back. With his own two young children (a toddler and a 5-year-old) now in Montessori school, and their showing incredible growth in it, Andrew believes he just might have found a successful alternative to America’s traditional system which, ironically, he is still a part of. https://www.MontessoriEducation.com

All I can say is at first I got confused like so we are doing parenting wrong but as I kept listening I got a new understanding and perspective on parenting, self-esteem and not forgetting not all praise is good praise. I can go on and on, but this has been really helpful. Thank you, Miss Joyce, for sharing the link with me. much appreciated 👏.
