Quotes: “Montessori is very structured in the sense that, there are choices you can have. And within those choices, you're free. But outside of that, there's a real wall and you cannot go pass that and it might sound kind of dictatorial, but that wall gets bigger and bigger as the children grow up and get more freedom.” “Improvement means that something wasn't going that well before we needed to change it.” “Most of us had crappy education. So with Montessori, the idea is to spend a lot more time on the foundational elements.” “When I fail, it's awesome because I know I'm going to learn something.” Social Links: Jesse McCarthy LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessemccarthy/ Website- https://www.montessorieducation.com/ How Do I Become A Montessori Teacher?
