Montessori Diploma Program and Curriculum Testimonials

Thank you so much for providing this program. I know it does not include in-person training and that this can be frowned upon by other institutions. However, I think that making Montessori training (and any training, for that matter) accessible equally to people who cannot attend an in-person program is a gift of utmost value. Also, as in most areas in life, no matter how experiential and immersive the training, it is the day-to-day experience that teaches us how to put theory into practice. I am so very grateful for this opportunity, and I am overjoyed by the prospects that lie ahead.

My NAMC training has been an enriching, exciting, and intriguing experience. Every page of the manuals is filled with wisdom, practical applications, and insights.

I would like to thank you personally for your guidance, your kind and helpful guidance, and your contribution to my success.

NAMC’s training is offered in a way that made it possible for me to effectively learn the Montessori methods and materials, while still being able to work and take care of my everyday life responsibilities. I loved the whole experience with NAMC! My superintendent, who is a huge proponent of Montessori education, suggested I look into getting trained as a Montessori teacher for our new Montessori Charter School. I looked at many, many options. Living in northern and very rural Wisconsin, there are no training centers close to me. That was a big issue due to the fact that I in no way could, in good conscience, leave my family for weeks and weeks at a time to do the traditional on-site training. Then I found NAMC — it was the perfect format for our needs. The training I received from NAMC made me feel very confident that I was going to be able to implement the methods and materials as I had seen in the classrooms I visited. I can confidently talk with other Montessori teachers from around the nation and I have never felt as though I missed out on something in my training. My mentor was fantastic, extremely helpful, and incredibly insightful. It's clear the people at NAMC want you to succeed and have a successful classroom. I thank NAMC, and my superintendent, for rejuvenating my teaching career.
