Description

This 7-day training course is designed to explore the application of Maria Montessori’s pedagogical approach to language teaching. Participants will delve into the principles, strategies, and materials that can enhance language learning in both traditional and non-traditional educational settings.

Learning objectives

  1. Understand the key principles of Maria Montessori’s pedagogy and their relevance to language teaching.
  2. Explore innovative and systemic methods for teaching languages.
  3. Acquire practical skills in designing language learning materials based on Montessori principles.
  4. Foster a student-centered learning environment that promotes active engagement and independence.
  5. Enhance participants’ ability to adapt teaching methods to cater to individual learning needs.

As the course concludes, participants will be encouraged to envision the future developments in language teaching that align with the principles of Maria Montessori’s pedagogy. Emphasis will be placed on the need for governments and educational institutions to adapt their guidelines and policies to support student-centered, holistic approaches to language learning. Failure to do so may result in a continuation of outdated teaching methods that do not effectively meet the needs of diverse learners and hinder their language acquisition and development. By embracing innovative and systemic methods, we can create more inclusive and engaging language learning experiences for students worldwide.

Methodology & assessment

The course will combine theoretical lectures, practical workshops, and interactive activities to facilitate a comprehensive learning experience. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in hands-on activities, group discussions, and peer collaboration to deepen their understanding of the presented concepts.
