I went to a Montessori school for a year and a half: third grade, and the first half of the fourth. I then re-entered public school. That was a shock.
I wouldn’t trade that year and a half for anything. That was when I started learning algebra, for example.
The problem, of course, is that most families can’t afford the tuition at such schools. I have an idea, then: why not make public schools more like Montessori schools?
I didn’t have anything to do with the creation of the video below. I merely wrote this introduction to it. Enjoy. Questions are welcome.
You’re right about the public schools putting out the light. There are still some very good teachers but then there are others that are not. I think it is more to do with the system.
