"The child developing harmoniously and the adult improving himself at his side make a very exciting and attractive picture." Maria Montessori

In our early eduction world, we of course focus on aiding children. But what about us adults? In this keynote, we dive into how Montessori is actually a real-world, joyous philosophy for all ages.

He received his B.A. in psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and his Montessori teacher's diploma for ages 2.5 to 6+ from Association Montessori Internationale (AMI). Through his career he’s worked with thousands of children, teachers, and parents — as an elementary & junior-high school teacher, a Head of School for infants to 8th graders, an executive with a nationwide group of Montessori private schools, and a teacher-and-parent mentor.

I've posted comments on several of Montessori Educations' videos. There is always some great thought coming through but I don't agree with everything! I think there are a few concepts from Montessori that are not understood well, or are misunderstood to mean something different, by even the most highly trained teachers here. I wonder why I see it differently? I suppose my own study of Montessori was influenced by other ideas I have been passionate about, and where they intersect I feel a deep connection and understanding. It is my opinion that there is a LOT of room for this movement to evolve! And I am excited about potential conversations.

Thank you I really enjoyed watching this. My kids go to a fantastic Montessori nursery (2-4years I wish it continued further!) here in Cornwall, UK. I have so much love and gratitude for it. 😊
