Hello, I'm Mirka...

When my first son was born, I realized I really wanted a Montessori education for him. There was just one problem…. I had zero money, zero Montessori training, zero business skills and zero knowledge. I had to learn everything by trial and error. It took a lot of time, effort and resources. There were huge roadblocks…

It was hard, but I figured it out and now I want to help you do the same.

Today I have a Montessori school, an adolescent farm, an international teacher training center and I am closing the gap -

I am helping people who want to do the same

Here’s what you are thinking…

I don’t have any money...
Where do I start?
What if I fail?

How can I bring Montessori to my child and community when I don't have any money?
Where do I even start when I have never done anything like this?
How have other people done this before me, and why aren’t they sharing the way they did it?
How can I build and run a financially successful project that thrives instead of draining my family’s finances?

Why do I have to figure this out all by myself?

The good news is… You won’t!

I can help you

Attending Mirka's program on following your Montessori dream was an absolute game-changer for me. What struck me most was Mirka's genuine passion for nurturing each individual's unique vision. She encouraged us to embrace creativity, adaptability, and a strong sense of purpose. Her workshop not only equipped us with practical strategies but also instilled a sense of confidence and conviction in pursuing our Montessori dreams.

Participating in Mirka´s program was an enriching experience. Understanding that I was not alone and that my dreams were possible was the first step. Projecting how to achieve them was the following. But the most important thing was to discover that together we can achieve great things, and that cooperation and innovation is the path we must follow so that Montessori reaches every corner of the world. Thanks for everything!
Larisa SantimariaHigh School principal, Escuela del Alba (Argentina)

I am very happy and blessed to meet Mirka and her team in MIP. Since my first meeting with her back in 2020, Mirka and her team have continuously and consistently cared about my need for help and guidance on how I could achieve my Montessori Dream. They are always ready to lend their ears and passionately work to create various programs for school owners/ leaders like me. Thank you Mirka!

By the end of our time together you will understand how to:

Create programs that people will keep coming back for because you are providing exactly what they need
Develop programs responsive to your clients’ needs over time. This will lead to making a true impact aligned with your mission and to a strong sustainability of your programs.
Ensure your program makes enough money so you aren’t always scrambling to find financing and pay the bills
Separating the impact of your programs from financial goals and financing strategies is a big mistake. Learn how to generate resources to meet the needs of the present and the future alike and build a financially sustainable organization.
Use marketing tactics & strategies unique to the Montessori world to create interest and desire for the programs you offer
To have impact and create financial sustainability, you need one more essential skill and that is - to tell the world about your work. You need an effective marketing and communication strategy for both, to make the impact and to generate the resources.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to have previous Montessori training to participate in the Academy?

No, you do not. The Academy focuses on creating financially healthy and impactful Montessori organizations, and we will be looking particularly at the financing and communications aspect of this work. To build Montessori programs, you do not have to have Montessori education. You can find collaborators and/or employees, or you can get the training in the future, but to start and run a company or a nonprofit or a school, you need to have basic business, management and marketing knowledge and this is what the academy is about.

Do I have to have previous business and marketing knowledge?

No, I will share all I have learned in the past 15 years with you. You will learn all you need to build sustainable and visible Montessori programs.

I do not have the money to pay for this program.

Let me ask you. What came first, the chicken or the egg? Or the egg and after that the chicken? You will never be able to create a financially sustainable and successful Montessori project until you find the courage to invest into your ability to do so. The price of the course is as low as it can be, precisely for the purpose that anyone can afford it. If you need, use the 3 payments plan.

The timing of sessions is not good for me so can I attend some other better time?

There is no better time to attend this course than now. All lectures will be available in a recorded format. You can follow the course at your own time and pace and at your convenience. If you say to yourself that there will be a better time in the future, you will never start.

Do I need to have a certain amount of money saved so I can start my project?

No, you do not need any investment money. I had no investment money myself. You need the will to start, the courage to take the first step and the humbleness to learn.

What level of English is required to join the program?

We require at least B1 plus according to the CEFR. It is called the Intermediate level of English. We do not request to send us certificates.

How much time the recordings are available?

The recordings and all course materials will be available to participants for 3 years after the course is over. Participants will get online access to the recordings. We do not send recordings of this event via mail. Thank you for your understanding.

Is it possible to attend only session 1 and then decide if it is for me?

We strongly advise that you participate in the full and overall program. The topics covered are different and the sessions will cover different areas of the perspective so you can gain the full picture.

How is this different from other marketing programs available online?

There are no marketing Montessori programs available. You may find smaller programs focused on partial marketing skills, such as social media or growing your email lists, but you will not find a comprehensive overview of all you need to know to work on improving your marketing strategy and tactics you use.

Do I need any prior experience with finance or marketing?

No, you will learn what you need to know while in the Academy. You will design and plan your project before you take any specific steps. The safest way to become an entrepreneur is to do the most important work before you spend a penny.

How does the Academy work?

The Academy combines weekly recorded lectures, where I will share what you need to do and how, with live workshops, where you will dip your feet into the work. You will learn step by step, guided by my knowledge and experience. We will practice every skill in a safe community of peers who will be learning together with you.

Is it possible to pay in installments?

Yes, you can divide the payment into 3 installments. Just choose this option when you register.

What if I can't keep up with the pace of the course?

All sessions will be recorded and available to participants for 3 years after the course is over. You can watch it and complete the work at your own pace.

Will I receive a certificate upon completion of the program?

Yes, participants who will complete the course by attending the live meetings or watch the recordings of these meetings as well as course lectures will receive a certificate of attendance of the program.

How will you know that I have completed the course?

I will be able to see your progress with the course material.

Will there be homework?

Yes, you will receive worksheets from us to help you process the course material. You can do the work at your own pace.

I can’t wait for you to join me

I developed Montessori Marketing & Business Academy for everyone who has a dream to bring Montessori to their communities and just doesn’t know what to do next or even where to start.

I also developed this program for people who already are running their own Montessori programs (or are employed to do so) and they struggle financially and with visibility.

If you’d like to join a dynamic community of Montessorians who believe with all of their heart and soul that we can help to change the world if only we can build our programs in a sustainable way and spread the word about them effectively, I can’t wait to meet you.

I will walk you step-by-step through the process of turning your Montessori vision into a successful and thriving reality so you don’t have to struggle like I did.

Love,
