Thanks to the course, I, as a parent, have become more aware of my child's needs at each stage of development. My own perception of my child's abilities at this age and the role of the adult in the child's development has changed.

Graduate of AMI Assistant Course 0-3
When I was introduced to the Montessori method specifically through AMI, I remember being enthralled by the environment. It was intuitively revealed to me that it was the most ingenious thing that could be devised for a child.

‘What has the AMI course given me!!!? The most important thing for me was the opportunity to act with confidence, trusting myself, supported by an understanding of the basic principles of Montessori pedagogy. I came back with a deep powerful breath, as it happens when something really bright and very significant happens in life!

Graduate of the AMI Assistant Course 0-3
It was an amazing, intense fortnight that changed me as both a parent and an educator. Surprisingly, the seemingly small details introduced made an immediate and dramatic difference to the group, and actually gave a deeper understanding of the processes and vision for the group and my goals.

There is an expression, ‘Don't educate your children, educate yourself, they will still be like you.’ I understand this expression more deeply now.
Tatiana
Graduate of AMI Assistant Course 3-6
It is always so scary to miss something, to miss something, to miss something in a child and to miss the precious moment when he or she could have realised his or her potential with our help. It is good that there are such courses that help us to expand our own boundaries, to realise again the responsibility that lies on us and to find the strength and patience ‘not to give, not to impose, not to pull’, but rather to observe, not to interfere and not to harm.
