Empowering Educators: How Our In-House Montessori Teacher Training Shapes Excellence in the Classroom

September 9, 2024 by Michelle Sarrosa

Our in-house teacher training ensures that teachers are aligned with our educational goals, maintaining high standards of teaching and providing quality education to our students. The training covers a wide range of subjects, including child development, Montessori philosophy, classroom management, and hands-on materials. This comprehensive approach equips teachers to address the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs of each child.

Montessori education is based on specific principles about child development and learning. Training helps educators understand the Montessori philosophy, which focuses on fostering independence, respect for a child’s natural psychological development, and the importance of a prepared environment. Montessori teaching methods are different from traditional educational approaches.

Teachers are trained to guide rather than instruct, observe rather than direct, and to create learning environments that encourage exploration and self-directed learning. Montessori training often emphasizes the importance of continuous learning and self-reflection, encouraging teachers to continue developing their skills and understanding of the Montessori method throughout their careers.

Montessori training empowers teachers to create a learning environment that encourages children to explore, discover, and learn at their own pace, fostering a deep sense of satisfaction in their roles as educators. These benefits make Montessori teacher training a valuable investment for those passionate about fostering the growth and development of young learners.

A New Campus: San Carlos, California

As for example, our upcoming San Carlos, California, daycare, preschool, and kindergarten campus of Learn And Play® Montessori School will exemplify our commitment to offering best-in-class educational opportunities, supported by our rigorous in-house teacher training. For example, at the San Carlos campus, teachers will undergo comprehensive training that ensures they are aligned with the school’s educational philosophy and high academic standards. This training covers essential topics such as child development, the Montessori philosophy, classroom management, and the effective use of hands-on Montessori materials. By equipping teachers with the skills to address the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs of every child, the San Carlos campus will create an enriched learning environment where young learners can thrive.

At San Carlos, our daycare, preschool, and kindgarten teachers and teaching staff will be empowered to guide students through exploration and self-directed learning, fostering independence and critical thinking. The teacher training program emphasizes the unique Montessori approach, where educators serve as guides rather than traditional instructors, allowing children to learn at their own pace. With continuous learning and self-reflection being key components of this training, our teachers are equipped to meet the highest academic standards. The San Carlos campus will showcase how this approach not only nurtures each child’s natural curiosity but also supports their growth into confident, capable learners ready for future academic challenges.
