Jeff Bezos was a Montessori child -- and became one of the most successful entrepreneurs in history.
Is there a connection between early Montessori education and later success in business?
Our guest today, the ed-tech entrepreneur William Kelly, thinks there can be, if an individual chooses such a career path for his or her life.
And Will himself is proof, being a former Montessori child who now attributes much of his success as an adult to his Montessori schooling.

The Reality of Public School (vs Montessori)
2/7/2023
“I always thought I’d send my kids to public school. But I’m probably not going to do that now.”
Andrew, who understandably didn’t want to share his last name for this discussion, has been an elementary school teacher for the past 10 years. But he’s recently started to question if what he and his public-school colleagues are doing is actually helping students — or holding them back.
With his own two young children (a toddler and a 5-year-old) now in Montessori school, and their showing incredible growth in it, Andrew believes he just might have found a successful alternative to America’s traditional system which, ironically, he is still a part of.
