About James McGhee II @jrm2fla @skipcountkid on Twitter

I am co-Head of Alexander Montessori School and an AMI certified teacher (Perugia, Italy) for ages 3-6, and an AMS certified teacher (Dallas, TX) for ages 6-12. (Please see www.alexandermontessori.com.) I am an amateur musician, composer, performer, and recording artist. Go to www.skipcountkid.com to hear samples of my Children's Music (available via iTunes, Amazon, and other services). Besides education, I have an interest in politics, history, religion, philosophy, literature, art, music, film, and enjoy podcasts such as In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg. I enjoy traveling and culture. I speak some Italian and Spanish. I enjoy running half marathons for fun, not for the competition, and kayaking in Biscayne Bay.
