Montessori Early Childhood program
It was such an honor doing NAMC’s Montessori Diploma Program. I enjoyed it so much and I learned a lot. Your program is designed in such a way that students don’t get overwhelmed and the tutors are always there to help every step of the way, which makes it possible for students to succeed.”
Sharon, NAMC 3-6 Grad, Rwanda
I wanted to thank you expressly for making Montessori training so accessible, affordable and enjoyable! I have done a few courses over the years and the NAMC distance-learning stands out for its expert and encouraging mentoring, varied and thoughtful tasks, and perfectly pitched scaffolding! In learning to become a Montessori educator, NAMC students receive a real taste of the Montessori Method in their learning, where tasks are tailored, meaningful and reflective; so much more than box ticking and memorizing! I recommend this course to anyone even slightly interested in becoming a Montessori educator.”
Gemma, NAMC 3-6 Grad, Australia
I am deeply grateful for the knowledge and guidance I have received through the NAMC 3–6 Early Childhood Diploma Program. The training has been invaluable in shaping my understanding of the Montessori philosophy and enhancing my ability to create a prepared environment that nurtures each child’s growth. The well-structured curriculum, detailed manuals, and support throughout this journey have given me both confidence and inspiration as I continue my work in the classroom. I truly appreciate the dedication and effort that NAMC puts into its training, and I look forward to applying these principles every day.”
