    Montessori - Entrepreneurs in the Making

    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.

Soulful Lamb ,

Incredibly helpful and intelligent

I am just starting as an assistant at a Montessori School...at age 70...with the energy and conviction of a 10 year old. Montessori is a natural fit for my temperament and my world view. I'll be working with 7th/8th middle school students. Eager to learn everything by reading, listening, observing. Will easily discard all the bad teaching instruction I never agreed with and never wanted to master. I'm the person in the Milgram experiment who would have walked out after the first shock. Wish I'd found Montessori decades ago -- but on the other hand, age is an advantage in this case. Jesse, I'd love to talk to you if you have time. 🌹

Wonderful balance of modern and Montessori

Jesse does a great job helping me understand the Montessori philosophy and principles while bringing all of that thinking into the modern world with a modern lens. Thanks for leading this conversation Jesse!

*SarahW* ,

the best Montessori podcast

Jesse covers a variety of topics related to Montessori that are very helpful to me as a homeschooling parent, and I think teachers/guides would likely benefit from them as well. He nicely balances referencing and honoring Montessori's original works with modern-day applications. Out of all the Montessori podcasts I listen to, this one has the most substance and is definitely my favorite.
