I had high expectations and all were metI had high expectations and all were met. I have never had a problem knowing what is expected of me, the instructions and expectations are clear and to the point.I love the pace... It just feels like a normal part of my day. The moodle is great... The videos are good and informative. The technology is great from my point of view. Michael Horan, Student |
I love and enjoy the programI must honestly say I love and enjoy the program. Comparing the things I learn with "the real world", I can tell that the program does offer us a high quality education. The teachers in my classroom had a look at my Practical Life Album the other day, and they were in awe. They asked me to show them the other albums as I receive them as well.From a student perspective I must say that despite the fact that the course is a lot of work, the program is interesting and a lot of fun. It is much more than I would have ever expected to find in a distance study course." Doreen Creutz, Student |
This course has exceeded my expectationsThis course has exceeded my expectations of a Montessori training program. It’s a lot of work with a lot of important information. The instructional guide was always available through the moodle and email. The instructional guide would often post comments to my forum answers and my journal. I would also sometimes get questions back that extended my view and pushed me to think a little more. During scheduled chats, the instructional guide would stay on task, direct the chat, as well as keep up with our many questions. Navigating the course became comfortable after a few weeks of practice. Personally, I am very comfortable and thoroughly enjoy the concept of receiving all this information online. I have the freedom to choose when to view my lectures and when to complete assignments. I am also able to pause the lectures to take adequate notes or rewind when I don’t understand a concept.

I never thought I would do anything like thisI feel confident that I have learned A LOT about the philosophy behind the Montessori method. It has been an adjustment for me to go back to school...let alone go back to school ONLINE! I never thought I would do anything like this. It is fun though, and very convenient. I LOVE the flexibility! Anonymous, Student |
I love all the different ideasI love all the different ideas and comments that our cohort posts on the moodle. In college I was a quiet learner, but with this online course it is imperitive to post your comments for all to see….at first this made me nervous, but now I like that I get to read what everyone else is thinking. I think it makes the ‘conversations’ more diverse and interesting. Sally Terry, Student |
