The AMI 3-6 Diploma course transformed me, not just as a future Montessori teacher, but also as a person

Andrea studied our AMI 3-6 Diploma course and graduated in June 2026. She shares her experience of studying with the Maria Montessori Institute and what she thought about the AMI 3-6 Diploma course.

When I began this course, I never imagined how much it would transform me—not only as a future Montessori teacher but also as a person. From the very beginning, I was challenged, encouraged, supported, and guided in countless ways.

One of the greatest transformations was the confidence I gained in English. Studying, learning, giving presentations, and communicating in another language was a significant challenge, and I am deeply grateful for the patience and encouragement I received throughout the process.

I will also never forget how the environment itself touched me. The beauty and care of the Institute, the attention to every detail, and the presence of flowers awakened something in me that I carry with me to this day. The importance of creating a beautiful, peaceful, and carefully prepared environment has become part of my home and my daily life. The love for flowers and the appreciation for beauty that I found at the institute are gifts I will carry with me long after the course has ended.

I am grateful for every conversation, every piece of guidance, every moment of encouragement, and even for the times I was challenged to reflect, improve, and take responsibility. I found support not only in words but also in the kindness and warmth that made me feel welcome and cared for.

I will never forget everything I experienced over these two years: the lessons learned, the memories created, and the person I became through this experience. I leave the institute as a Montessori teacher, but also as someone deeply transformed by this journey. I will carry the Montessori philosophy, the lessons, the memories, and all of you with me wherever I go.
