Dr. Steven Hughes

Dr. Steven Hughes was one of the keynote speakers at the national conference last weekend. He is incredible. He is a pediatric neuropsychologist and a proud parent of a child in Montessori. If you ever get a chance to hear him speak, he will knock your socks off. He talks about where education is heading and how Montessori education is the solution to many of the issues we're running into. He outlines brain function and how Dr. Montessori had it all figured out years before anyone knew anything about brain imaging. Check out the video below for a taste of his speeches.
