Testimonials

The word ‘training’ seems conspicuously inadequate to describe the experience I just went through.

- Tschol Slade, CMSTEP Intern 2008-2009

As an administrator of a Montessori school, I believe (through the training program) I just had an experience of “flow”, and now understand how to be more productive and energetic.

- Rupa Townsend, Principal, Clark Montessori

I can now contribute to Montessori’s vision of learning, because when ‘It can unite and nourish life, it becomes a brilliant and living thing,’ And I am a part of that living thing.

- Anne Schoelwer, CMSTEP Intern 2007-2008

I am learning to create better transitions to begin and end the day, set intentions in the morning and end with gratitude; how to set up time for silence and reflection; to make food preparation a more consistent program element; and to make space as a teacher for the students to lead and own the program.
