Summary of the AMI Montessori Teacher Training Course 0-3, Module 2

On July 7, 2023, a solemn closing ceremony was held at Montessori Vietnam Education (MVEC) – Tiny Flower Montessori (TFM).

The event was honored to welcome the distinguished presence of Ms. Sharlyn M. Smith – AMI Montessori Training Director, Professor at Loyola University (USA), AMI International Examiner, along with all the course participants.

Module 2 was more than just a course; it was a profound journey of discovery into the philosophy and methodology of Montessori education. Under the dedicated guidance of Ms. Sharlyn M. Smith, participants had the opportunity to explore valuable professional knowledge, from a deep understanding of early childhood psychology and designing an ideal learning environment to creating educational activities suitable for each developmental stage of children aged 0-3 years.

Ms. Sharlyn's lectures were not only rich in knowledge but also deeply inspiring, allowing participants to appreciate the profound humanistic values embedded in the Montessori philosophy. This was not just theoretical learning but a precious foundation for practical application, contributing to the growth and expansion of Montessori education in Vietnam.

The success of this course is the result of close collaboration between several organizations: Montessori Vietnam Education (MVEC), the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), the Montessori Training Center Northeast (MTCNE), and the wholehearted dedication of Ms. Sharlyn M. Smith. Particularly, the perseverance and commitment of the participants have made this educational journey deeply meaningful and impactful.

We wish all participants continued success as they progress through the course, master the lessons, and effectively apply the acquired knowledge in their Montessori teaching environments. You are the pioneers, bringing Montessori philosophy closer to the community and contributing to building a high-quality early childhood education system in Vietnam.

Let us continue, not only to spread knowledge but also to inspire, lighting the future of the younger generation through every lesson taught, every carefully prepared learning environment, and every joyful smile of a child.

❤️ We look forward to seeing you again in the next module, where Montessori values will continue to expand, and new milestones will be achieved! ❤️

Sincerely,
Montessori Vietnam Education
