Anne MacMillan believes the basic truths that make the Montessori method of education effective can help us develop a better educational system for the future. She is an AMS-certified Montessorian trained to teach children ages 3-12, and has over 30 years experience teaching children in a variety of educational environments.
She holds a master's in clinical psychology from Harvard and, in addition to her work in the classroom, coaches individuals managing intelligent high-functioning autism in adults. Her work with children has been highly influenced by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's concept of flow.
Tomorrow's world is going to be different than today's. Tomorrow's success won't require the memorization of facts or diplomas from fancy schools. When artificial intelligence is more fully with us, we will realize that everything we once thought we knew about education has long been obsolete. Today's parents have little reason to prepare their children for a future based on the wisdom of the past... because that future won't exist.Instead, prepare your children for the future that really is coming.
Montessori builds innovative entrepreneurs who know how to lead, not the corporate cogs and factory workers who come out of conventional classrooms. Montessori teaches children how to think rather than what to think, and how to act rather than how to follow. Montessori helps children learn how to make their own meaning -- a skill that will be worth far more than accolades in a future world that will be even more complex than today's.
The wisdom your parents used to raise you isn't enough for your children because the world has changed... and because it will continue to change at faster and faster rates. What mattered when you were a child doesn't matter as much now and will likely not matter at all by the time your children reach adulthood.
Shift your thinking for your child.
