Anyone knows anything about training as a montessori teacher

[Giovannawain]

Hello mamas, does anyone here know anything about training as montessori teacher and working within the bucks county? I would like to train in early years education and work in a montessori nursery/school but I'm so confused on where I start. I have a degree in psychology and experience with working with teenagers but my experience with children is a bit more personal than on a professional setting. Does anyone know what would be a next step for me? Thank you very much x

I trained as a Montessori teacher in Berks - studied in a centre that's no longer there now as it was 20 years ago. Have you looked at the LMC website (London Montessori Centre)? That's who I trained with? Ever considered ABA (working with children with Autism)? Your psychology degree would be great for that plus you'll earn far more!!

Thank you, I'll look at the LMC website. I haven't even heard about ABA 😂 I'll research it. What do you do now? Are you still working in the field of education? I'm looking into working in a nursery and hopefully my son can attend where I'm working (do you know if that's allowed?) I was considering even asking the nursery I have signed him up for if I can stay there with him and still pay them but maybe that will be a good experience for me. He will start in January 2018. I wonder if they will allow. Anyway thank you very much for your help

AMI or AMS(as regarded that AMI is much harder and professional while AMS is much easier to pass through) , they are both the best and famous institution in the world that gives out montessori curriculum and practice.if u pass the test and access the diploma after 2years training, u will be welcomed anywhere in the world that runs a montessori school. in Shanghai China, there is a large need of montessori teacher especially from English speaking country. so welcome to our country if u get an AMI/AMS diploma whilst u wish a further development abroad.

I learned montessori theory by myself instead of taking a course, and it still helped a lot during the education.perhaps we can discuss when u meet the problem
