School Oviedo Montessori School was established in 1998. It is a child size environment with a safe, secure atmosphere. We accept only 45 children. There is an acre of playground for gardening, running and climbing. Classes are multi-aged for children 2 years old Kindergarten My goals for Oviedo Montessori and teachers are to continuously improve the program and stay current in our knowledge, and to give your child the opportunity to develop the intellectual foundation and self-confidence that will benefit him for the rest of his life. I opened Oviedo Montessori School because I believe that the True Montessori Method is the most satisfying and challenging way for a child to learn. When children are allowed to work at their own pace and find their own levels, it is exciting to see how quickly they advance in their knowledge. I have a BA in Elementary Education from the University of Central Florida, a Florida Teaching certificate for Elementary Education grades K-6 and Prekindergarten/Primary Education age 3-grade 3, an Advanced Directors Credential, Montessori Certification from the American Montessori Society ( AMS ), CPR and First Aide. I have been working as a Montessori Teacher since 1998, and have enjoyed working in Oviedo Montessori School since 2004. I have a BA in Elementary Education & Special Education from Colegio Universitario Metropolitano, Puerto Rico, and Montessori Certification for ages 2-6. I also attend seminars and workshops to keep my education current and am certified in CPR and first aide. Because Spanish is my first language, I teach the children conversational Spanish as well as help integrate new children that only speak Spanish. Montessori is a different method of learning, beginning with the teachers preparing the environment for the children. Montessori students learn through hands on experiences and work at their own pace, so a prepared environment is very important. Children work in a multi-age classroom where they can learn from their peers. I find teaching Montessori very interesting, because children learn at their own pace. I have been teaching Montessori education for more than 10 years including teaching in Oviedo Montessori School since 2004. I have a BS in math and science from Bangalore University, India, and Montessori Certification as well as certified in CPR and First aide. I attend Montessori workshops continuously to improve and update the program. Montessori education means a lot to me. It gives me great satisfaction when the children learn independently as a natural step in the learning process. The Montessori approach to education is consciously designed to recognize different learning styles. Montessori students learn through hands on experience. Its curriculum is carefully structured and integrated from concrete to abstract. My goal is to help children learn to their maximum capacity. I have an A.S. degree from Kingdom of Jordan, and CDA. I have 13 years of experience in preschools, and I have been working with Oviedo Montessori School since 2004. I am trained in the Montessori Method and certified in CPR and First Aide, and participated in numerous educational activities and training sessions including a Montessori Music Workshop. I chose to work with Oviedo Montessori School because it is a role model in the field, providing the children with the care and attention they need to grow and learn in a healthy environment. The Montessori classroom offers a variety of opportunities for children to experience freedom within an attractively structured and welcoming classroom. Another thing I like about Oviedo Montessori School is that it has an excellent reputation, and the administration always strives to maintain this by recruiting excellent teachers who are patient and understanding of children, especially those children who need extra attention. I attended UCF then transferred to the Art Institute of Dallas to study graphic design. I was introduced to my first Montessori sc
