Trillium Montessori Talks 025: Interview with Jess Gagne on New Students, Favorite Lessons, and More!
It’s incredible to see the growth of students when you allow them to take charge of their learning and progress at their own pace. Growth doesn’t happen on someone else’s timetable, it happens at the right moment. Giving students the space and independence to learn on their own timeline often leads to an explosion of growth that feels more meaningful because it’s natural, not forced upon them.
In this episode of Trillium Talks, I sat down with Jess Gagne, an elementary Montessori guide, to talk about everything Montessori. Jess shares her experiences with allowing students to get involved in their lessons, tips for working with students that are new to Montessori methodology, game-changing systems, and the value of patience and allowing your students to learn and grow at their own pace.
