About Montessori

Unlike the educational fads that come and go, the Montessori method has been used for almost a century. It is a curriculum that permits children to progress at their own pace.

It is a demanding program for our teachers because teachers work with students as individuals, not as a class.

_______

During teacher training, you will gain a deep understanding of Montessori theory as well as practical application in the classroom.
