By Courtney Jacob on 8/20/2020

I loved this course! I was an assistant teacher in a Montessori classroom for a few years. I have been considering going to get fully certified as a Montessori educator but I wanted to take a few courses here to make sure I was still very interested. This small course has my interest and I think I might go ahead and go all the way! Thank you very much :-)
