We are often asked how does one become a Montessori teacher? We encourage serious candidates to become acquainted with the exceptional programs found on the American Montessori Society website. A quality program will often involve –

• 3 to 4 weeks of intensive training during the summer
• an internship under an experienced teacher for an entire school year
• a weekend of continued study each month at the training center
• completion of curriculum albums
• 8 to 10 observations of various Montessori classrooms.
