Montessori Teacher Training

Becoming a Montessori teacher is the beginning of a lifelong journey as an educator and advocate for tamariki (children).

There are many Montessori teacher education organisations and courses offered around the globe. Currently we only have Montessori 3-6 year training in New Zealand, though Maria Montessori Education Foundation (MMEF) does, at times, offer Assistant courses in 0-3 and 6-12 years.

Below are organisations who offer training based in Aotearoa, New Zealand.
