Accredited Montessori Teacher Training Program in Davao City
Learn to guide young children the Montessori way. Our accredited, onsite program covers child development, the prepared environment, hands-on Montessori materials and real classroom practice, linked to our new Playschool.
Why Montessori
A teaching career built on curiosity and independence
Montessori is an approach to early childhood education developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. Children learn by exploring a carefully prepared classroom, choosing meaningful activities and working at their own pace, while the teacher observes and guides instead of lecturing.
Our Montessori Teacher Training Program in Davao City prepares you to be that guide. You learn the philosophy behind the method and practise the everyday skills a Montessori classroom needs, with feedback from our trainers.
- Accredited Montessori teacher training
- Hands-on practice with real Montessori materials
- Classroom experience linked to UpLearning Playschool
- Small groups and personal feedback from trainers
What you will learn
Inside the Montessori Teacher Training Program
Six core areas that prepare you to run a calm, child-centred early years classroom.
The prepared environment
Arranging child-sized furniture, shelves and materials so children can choose, focus and put things back on their own.
Practical life & sensorial activities
Pouring, buttoning and tidying to build focus and coordination, plus sensorial materials for sorting and comparing.
Early language & maths
Sounds, letters, vocabulary and early reading, and number sense with concrete materials before written symbols.
Observation & record keeping
Watching closely, noting each child’s progress and planning the right next lesson at the right time.
Classroom guidance & parents
Calm, respectful ways to guide behaviour, build routines and keep families involved in their child’s learning.
