Hermosa Montessori School
Tucson, Az. Since 1978.
Our Staff
''I never teach my pupils; I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn." -Albert Einstien
Most of Hermosa Montessori's staff have worked together at our school for over a decade, a number of us since the school's inception over twenty five years ago.
A teacher in an authentic Montessori program will be certified by an accredited Montessori Teacher Training program in addition to obtaining undergraduate and graduate degrees. The teacher will have attended courses from 9 months to two years to learn how to direct a Montessori program. Montessori teacher training emphasizes the development of the total child - emotional, physical, intellectual, and social.
Your child's teacher works closely with your child giving guidance when needed. She/he is trained to observe the individual interests and needs of each child, demonstrate the correct use of classroom materials, and guide your child into appropriate activities.
(Teacher's resumes are available in the front office for parents to review.)
