Becoming a Montessori 3-6 Guide

Core Competencies of the 3–6 Montessori Guide
What every future Montessori guide needs to understand—about the child, the classroom, and themselves.

“The adult is not just a teacher. We are guides – showing the way, walking alongside the child, or sometimes stepping back and letting the child lead.”

These are the opening words of the webinar with AMI trainer Madlena Ulrich. and within them lies a quiet truth about what it really means to become a Montessori guide for the 3–6 age group.

Whether you’re already working with children or just starting to explore Montessori education, this free webinar is something to watch.
It will not only give you practical insights—it will help you pause, reflect, and reconnect with your purpose.

The Prepared Adult: Where It All Begins

One of the most powerful insights Madlena shares?

“Montessori pedagogy is not just about having materials. You need to know what to do with them, what they are for, how to use them, and the principles that guide you.”

The prepared environment matters. But what matters even more is the prepared adult.

This webinar is not about checklists. It’s about what it takes—inside—to show up fully as a Montessori educator.

Montessori Is About Trusting the Process

Sometimes, the hardest thing is doing nothing.
Waiting. Observing. Trusting.

Some of the most meaningful moments in the Montessori classroom happen when we don’t step in—but instead, protect the child’s experience.

In the video, you’ll find examples from real classrooms and reflections that help you understand what authentic Montessori practice looks like—and what it asks of us.
