The great, pioneering achievement of Maria Montessori was to recognize the crucial importance of a child's first six years of development. During this time, a child's powers of absorption are at their highest, and lifelong attitudes and patterns of learning are formed. It is for this very sensitive period that the Montessori system of education can provide you with a unique opportunity to help a child develop into a responsible, thinking individual. If this is an interest to you then MONTESSORI training is for you.


Montessori Educational Centers and Mid-America Montessori Teacher Training Institute are proud to welcome Dr. Jane Nelsen, noted family and child therapist.

Dr. Jane Nelsen is a licensed Marriage, Family and Child Therapist and the author/co-author of 18 books, including several in the Positive Discipline series. With colleague Lynn Lott, she developed training workshops on Positive Discipline for both parents and teachers.

It doesn't matter if you're a teacher, parent or both...I'm going to show you how to solve defiance, whining and all of the other 'problem' behaviors children use to drive you crazy! And yes, you can do it all without ever blaming or punishing them!
Dr. Jane Nelsen

Make plans now to join us for this wonderful parent training opportunity.

Welcome to Montessori!

Montessori is a carefully prepared environment for learning. Our primary goal is to help each child reach his or her full potential in all areas of life. This is a comprehensive, carefully measured system created for the youngest of minds - for the very special needs and abilities of children from ages six weeks through the sixth grade. Your child will have the needed supervision, and the guidance that leads to learning.


Our Montessori Educational Goals:

  • to inspire academic excellence

  • to nurture curiosity, creativity, and imagination

  • to awaken the human spirit

The Montessori classroom encourages the development of:

  • respect for others and the environment

  • self-esteem and self-confidence

  • self-discipline

  • coordination

  • independence

  • social skills

  • emotional growth

  • cognitive preparation

The skills learned at Montessori help students throughout their academic careers.

Students learn:

  • to work independently and in groups

  • to problem solve

  • creativity through music, art, storytelling, movement

We do more than teach.

We inspire learning.
