This interview is with Myesha Green, an educator at Arbor Montessori School and the genius behind All-Day Primary

Q: Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? Your background, your interests, your dreams?

Hello! My name is Myesha Green, and I am a primary Montessori guide at Arbor Montessori School in Atlanta, Georgia. I just completed my 13th year as the lead teacher in an all-day primary community, and I have enjoyed every minute of my time with the children. I grew up in the suburbs of Houston, Texas, and attended Montessori school from my primary years through upper elementary. If you asked, I could draw a detailed picture of my primary classroom complete with spooning trays filled with black-eyed peas and a red ellipse made with electrical tape. I can finally admit that I was the child who tried to pull up the line during circle time. I can also describe my second-grade obsession with the checkerboard and share memories of presenting my elementary research project on London’s culture. Needless to say, I loved every moment of my Montessori education.
