Montessori Education with Jesse McCarthy

Most people desire peace, and nearly all parents want their child to become a good person who, as the line goes, "doesn't wind up in jail." But it's not always so easy to raise peaceful children, especially if we're not yet peaceful ourselves as adults. In this episode, we discuss some ideas around peace education with Claudia Lee, a Montessori teacher of 3- to 6-year-olds who has a unique perspective on the topic. https://www.montessorieducation.com/podcast/episode-4-want-world-peace-grab-a-mirror

Understanding Montessori education as a parent — and applying some of it in the home — is not always so simple. In this episode, I speak with Erin and Andrew Ranallo about their experimental journey from basically zero knowledge about Montessori, to effectively using Montessori ideas and practices with their own children, Steggie (age 4) and Elon (18 months). https://www.montessorieducation.com/podcast/episode-3-becoming-a-montessori-parent

In our first episode, we have a brief intro about the podcast and then jump right into a conversation about Montessori teaching and parenting with Alessandra Aristimuño, a teacher who works at the Montessori Primary or Casa level, i.e. in a mixed-ages classroom with children ~3 to 6 years old. https://www.montessorieducation.com/podcast/episode-1
