What makes any teacher desire to specialize in Montessori teaching?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Selecting a proper career is one of the most major decisions to be taken. Thus, make sure to take the right choice that fits you in all aspects such as financial, social, and future career path, and enjoy what you are doing as well. No one promotes to higher positions unless he believes and enjoys what he is doing.
Considering that you have found your way to this blog means you are thinking to be a qualified Montessori teacher one day or another and you are in the right place. Allow as to declare you important tips about the benefits of being a Montessori teacher hoping this will make your thoughts clear to set your mind and take whatever decision that most fits you.
Teachers all over the world face commonly same stressors including a heavy workload, managing the behavior of kids, and never having enough time, teachers feel isolated from the rest of the school members as they need to arrange and prepare for everything on their own and seeking perfection to apply her work produce a sense of exhaustion most of the time with no time to recover.
I can hear lots of voices claiming: “What could be changed if such a teacher shifts to Montessori teaching way?”
We are not going to say that being a Montessori teacher means you are going to work in class like a paradise and kids will turn to be angels suddenly in which you are all going to have fun all day! However, in the Montessori classroom, everyone enjoys his time including the teacher; That is a fact.
What makes it unique for Montessori is that you have this image of the paradise classroom in your mind and have the plan to achieve over time and you can see real progress on your way and as much some kids start to improve -Normalize in words of Montessori- they are pulling other kids with them. This is not the feeling of a regular teacher in which you are surviving to reach the end of the school day just to start over again the next morning.
What makes any teacher desire to specialize in Montessori teaching?
Let’s list some reasons:
1-the goal
Being a Montessori teacher enhances your inner peace and gives you a flexible thinking way “Growth Mindset” which allows you to overcome lots of obstacles with simple solutions. Usually “Montessorians” can reach higher levels of personal growth than others as are used to figuring out outstanding solutions for obstacles they face. Montessori is a good choice for high achievers.
2- Teacher-student relationship
When you are deciding to be a Montessori teacher you must first make sure that guiding and supporting kids is one of your values. It is not an office job that just has to spend fixed time doing the same thing every day. A Montessori teacher doesn’t suffer from stress as a traditional teacher, but she needs to be flexible and creative as she designs plans according to the kids she has currently in the class and may need to edit and update so many times until she found the best fit plan for her patch.
The pleasure comes from the multiple experiences both the teacher and children go through together until they figure out the proper way to go on together. All this happens without pressure and with no expectations for perfection.
3-promising career path
The career path for teachers usually ends to be a team leader and in some rare cases a school principal.
Unlike Montessori teachers, they have a wide opportunity throughout their career as Montessori is composed of so many partitions in which every partition allows the teacher to be a specialist in it and go for coaching as a mentor. Also, Montessori doesn’t rely on just educational strategies, it also depends on positive discipline, the psychological case for the child, speech/mental abilities, special learning needs, and physical development of the children in which each domain opens a different career path for the teacher to master it and be a specialist in it.
Another option that commonly happens is that Montessori teachers usually turn to open their Montessori preschool or school even they can start with just 1 Montessori class and then expand.
Finally, a well-qualified Montessori teacher always finds her way to train other new teachers and can be a professional trainer and/or mentor.
4-It is available to get a certified certificate regardless of where you live
What makes shifting into Montessori a golden chance is that anyone can turn to be a Montessori teacher no matter where he/she lives and regardless of his/her current specialization or educational background.
Montessori-certified diplomas are available now online from many countries.
