- This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Judi, a 40-year veteran in Montessori instruction, helps us explore the beauty that Maria Montessori brought to the world of education from the logic of a trained doctor and the heart of an attentive watcher. The value of being attentive, imbuing one's work and learning with worth, and honoring self and others creates a clear channel through which creativity can flow. These actions need not be limited to children in Montessori education - these principles can be practiced by anyone, at any time.
A board member of the American Montessori Society, Judi earned the society's "Living Legend" award in 2010 for her life's work as a Montessori teacher and teacher-educator. Judi believes in the independence, self-confidence, and creativity of all students, and speaks passionately about the soul of a teacher, the importance of self-discovery, and the transformative power that a love of learning provides.

Montessori changed my daughter’s life. My daughter’s self esteem was at an all time low because she was having trouble with reading and the public school system was putting her under a microscope. The teacher at one point even suggested putting her in special ed. I was losing my child to the public school system and I was devastated. I did research and transferred her to a Montessori school. Her transformation was incredible. She comes home and reads to me now and seldom asks me how to spell things when before she wouldn’t even try. The public school made me and my child think that we had a problem when in reality the way they were teaching my child was the problem. I am forever thankful for Dr. Maria Montessori.
This lady might be the best thing that ever happened to me in school. When I look back at my childhood, I always think about how lucky I was to be in her class.
lucky!!!!
lucky!!!!
That is so great to hear.
Haha Taylor...I didn't go to sleep yet bc I had to watch this Ted Talk real quick. It turns out my brother flourished in Judi's class only to be subjugated to special ed class upon arriving at the new school system. His learning is unique and so is his mind's ability to grasp things. He is truly special, but in a good way. Cookie cutter schooling lumped him into a pejorative category which is nothing other than a total mind-f@$k.
@@imhypers Very sorry to hear that. Judi is definitely far better than the norm for all types of learners.
My children go to Montessori. There's something so special about it. I went into a Montessori 3-6 room for an observation before confirming that this was the right education for my children... and was blown away.
Irene Tanya I love going to observations. Watching the classroom is amazing. I never want to leave and usually overstay my time lol
Irene Tanya i
I was a Montessori kid from Casa to high school and I'm so glad to be taught with this "non-traditional" curriculum. Montessori's the reason why I love learning!!
Where is she now?? I want to thank her! She was my teacher from 1992-93
Montessori picked my curiosity when I became a Montessori parents, so much that I became a Montessori guide and now with my wife we run a Montessori Academy, it has changed my life dramatically in a positive way. Most of the times I wonder how would have been to attend a Montessori School as a child, but the thing is, now is my time and I am having such an incredible time back at school working with children from 3 to 12 years old.
I was in Montessori birth to four years old, i liked that we got to learn languages,wish public schools had smaller sizes and more emphasis on Montessori. I hated how repetitive public school was. If i ever have kids i probably won't be able to do Montessori past elementary school so id have to do Montessori at home and send them to public school.
Loved this! In my Learning and Human Development class, this week, we are on the chapter on Montessori. I am watching videos to get a clear start.
I've gone to two Montessori Schools. Both of which were public, one was wonderful and encouraging. The other was trading a horrible line between Montessori and Traditional. My elementary principle understood the Dr. Montessori's philosophy and hired qualified teachers. My middle school was run be a man who barely knew the basics. It was one of my worst experiences. The school excepted non-Montessori-children as well as those who were. The easiest way to explain this class is: we were blessed with brand new materials! They were bright and colorful. I personally saw and helped my teachers take them out of original packaging. By the end of the year they were as run down and old looking as the 10 year old materials form elementary. They were folded and starting to rip. They even had stains on them! It was so sad. I wanted to cry and wished I could teach my peers the importance and worth of those papers and wooden shapes.
Thank you, Montessori method and materials are the best.
Yes, EXCELLENT......and I vote for this method of education.
Thank you, Judi, for an inspiring and exceptionally moving presentation. Once again, you have gone "over the top" in your presentation. Keep up this excellent work.
Judi, you gave such a fabulous and inspiring talk. I learned so much!
👌
BUT remember, there is Montessori and Monte-something. All are not equal and dependent on teacher authenticity and readiness. Otherwise they will undo the environment.
I guess it is not all about the "hands" but getting involved in every activity whish could develop a sense of confidence to create, interact, through play
Lovely speach - very informative and engaging.
Way to go, Judy! This is fabulous!
Thank you so much for this!
Awesome!
My dad went to this school, and my mom teaches there!
is that how they met? lol
Really cool
Loved this talk wish the coughing was muted
great
How is it that Montessori started with a lady going to a class with special needs students and ended up creating a curriculum that only the rich can afford
I don't the think the people in the back heard you, say that a little louder!!! I'm over here trying to find cheaper ways to get supplies for my kiddos. I know that a lot of the items are of good quality but SHEEEESH!! I'll go broke chasing Montessori supplies/curriculum.
We dont have this schools in algeria
Education is about promoting a socially just society. When Montessori schools are manufacturing such individuals as the founders of Amazon and Google who engage in capitalist exploitation, then the schools lack credibility and require reforming
but what about Beyonce
I guess the education in the US didn’t promote that. Just because one went to a Montessori school it doesn’t mean you’ll be a good person. Just like ivy leaguers aren’t all smart.
You realise RUclips is owned by Google right?
This is one of the most asinine comments I’ve ever read. How many traditional public school graduates have turned into greedy bastards?
You cant possibly be serious.
all I heard was the lisp
C. Kelly, oh my, let’s hope you will have perfect teeth at her age.
I didn’t hear anything except for how informative and awesome this teacher is.
Dude ..Daffy duck .. lithp ..Wabbit season .. If all you heard was a lithp I'm guessing you took the wrong turn at Alberquerqe
