Since inception in 2005, Montessori Teachers College aims to ignite the flame of a quality Montessori education in each of our Montessori teachers which respectfully and intelligently nurtures, guides and follows the child in a beautifully prepared Montessori environment.
Montessori Teachers College’s objective extends far beyond educating adult learners in the Montessori philosophy and methodology and the technical and procedural requirements for acquiring Montessori certification. The certification is a by-product of our mission to ignite our adult learners’ passion to appreciate and respect through observation, the child’s spirit and love of learning and exploring for themselves. By preparing our adult learners for the responsibilities of leadership within the Montessori community, we hope to enable and empower them to carry the light of Dr. Maria Montessori’s brilliant work into the future.
Through this and through the promotion and advancement of quality Montessori education, Montessori Teachers College hopes to make a meaningful contribution to a more understanding, caring, harmonious and peaceful world for generations to come.
Montessori Teachers College has been supporting the Adult Learners and community for over 15 years. We offer MACTE accredited Diploma programs, Certificate programs, Upgrades, Workshops and Refresher courses.
