Beautiful video. I'm from Africa and children here at 8 years of age can cook a meal for 10 people. Children here are so independent. It's good that Montessori can help children in those areas out there.

Montessori is awesome! Now make it more accessible to all!

Always love your talks. I’m 80 or I’d be going back to school to become a Montessori teacher contributing to a new world in that way!

I went to traditional school, but the teachers who stood out in my life and left an impact were the teachers who thought outside of the traditional box. One experience of that is my art teacher. My art teacher and the class left the school walking to paint a mural on the library wall. One of the lessons it taught me was how important it is to contribute to your community.

I remember so many things from my Montessori preschool days. They developed many of my passions.

Thank you for this amazing video. We are currently trying to start up a Montessori Public School in Aruba and have to unfortunately deal with the Pandemic in our fist pilot year. This is just the motivation that we need. Will be showing this to the team of teachers and parents.

Thank you for the wonderful video that explains why Montessori pedagogy and philosophy is so unique!

Montessori idea is totally come from God Jesus who is the creater of the world . It's extremely amazing education idea.

thanks, downloaded and kept for learning.

I am just starting to learn about montessori and am loving it! I live close to Wichita so I think it's awesome you live there 😁. I run a daycare and am hoping to integrate into montessori learning.

I go to Montessori and one of my classmates is actually the granddaughter of the school owner, Maria Montessori!

i've been working late at night these past 2 weeks. so i think all together ive been listening to maybe 70-80% of your podcasts while doing work at night bcs i just found out abt this podcast >.< i learn a lot, and i love every content in every episode. i've known montessori method when my child is still an infant but didnt apply it right away, now my daughter is 2yo. i've been applying montessori method since she's 1year plus, it has been great and i leaarnnn so many things along the way especially to better myself as a parent. and it's very true, we have to read a lot, like A LOT. with podcast like this i actually benefit a lot from it, with so many perspective from different prominent guests really open my eyes that to make it montessori it doesnt necessarily one way, it can be delivered in many ways too depending on the uniqueness of our kids. thank you for brighting up my days. i'm looking forward for more contents like this. thanks Jesse. Love, from Malaysia.

Montessori concepts of teaching is awesome.

Very informative!

Wonderful

It makes me sad because it feels like this program that was created for the less fortunate has been co-opted by affluent people making it exclusive and unattainable for most people. Especially lower income minority populations. :/

I am a Montessori teacher. From india 🇮🇳

I'm so exited both of my children will start in a Montessori school

How can a poor child get a "rich" Montessori education when a Montessori school is around $15,000 per year? I'm middle class and can't even afford that.

Yes Montessori learning is the best

"I thought it was trill"🤣

❤❤

Aw my sister goes to the school he is speaking at :) it’s an absolutely incredible school

It needs to be affordable,more or less similar situation in India and then how they talk about changing the world and workplace with Montessori.

when I started taking my young grandchildren to the local Montessori school and spending some time there volunteering I discovered that I should have been a Montessori teacher. Maybe next time.

My parents should’ve put me in a Montessori school

Are there any affordable montessori schools?

I don’t know.. I kinda want my 5 year old to learn his colors, numbers, letters. I really don’t care if he can go down town on the sub way. I kinda want my to have high SATs, take AP classes, maybe take trig in high school. Starting freshman year knowing how to fold laundry, but possibly being illiterate, or not being knowing your times table. Seem sad. But i guess that world theses days.

Dang, my baby is 10 months old, I want to find a Montessori school just like this with quality teachers. Know of any near Venice, Florida??

Be careful if you put your baby there temporary until 5-6 yrs then when is old enough to start school to put him in traditional school as i saw it messed up kids a lot. Some parents want to continue with mon. School but when they find cost they give up

Well, to be able to realistically compare if Montessori works, it would have to be comparable. Parents who can afford it are of higher SES, having above-average education themselves, having better jobs, less social problems, safer neighborhood, and most probably higher IQ in their genes to start with, compared with average comparable population. Also, a kid in such environment will be surrounded by talented kids more and by problematics kids less (only because the parents are rich). This is not a results of a Montessori system. Second, It would be comparable only with schools where teachers are paid the same, and where there is same few kids per class. Unfortunately most of the comparative studies come from the US, where any education is disastrous, and the public one is pure Hiroshima. Want to see pros and cons - compare academic results of students on universities or when applying for jobs (coz that's where education matters) after Montessori, and after a classic school of similar monthly cost. Or maybe even better - ask some Hiring HR/Personalist/Headhunter what is his experience with applicants with Montessori education, on average. Third - I do not like abundance of competitiveness, but I was in a very hard school, and I wanted to be better than other kids, I wanted good grades, I was given tasks and workload surely bigger and more difficult I would have ever asked for myself as a kid, but the drill worked. Take a look at sports - no elite athlete was ever trained only on the basis of complete voluntariness. The harder the coach or teacher is, the better results are. Also, kids have to get used to do tasks they do not enjoy that much, because that's ow life is.

Unfortunately, not affordable at $1400 a month!!

Not fair, Hazel is Asian.

Montessori has failed my children and it is ruined by my ex in laws. All have needed extra help to l teach them to acclimate to real school. They did not get taught. The Montessori teachers have only a certificate in Montessori and a high school degree! I loathe Montessori’s teaching method

Montessori is good because it prepares you to become a billionaire oligarch who doesn’t pay his taxes and mistreats his workers. Not a good recommendation. I hope not.

I bet these kids can't identify a gerund.
