And I think that the combination of this kind of teaching and holistic nutrition will have a huge impact on these children AND their parents. I admire you! You are not only trying to live a healthy life but help others on the right path as well. That is GREAT. I am glad that I found you. Well, it is your doggies fault. I always fall for the four-legged-barking-kind:) ******** <strong>Yes, Montessori is a wonderful approach, which helps the child develop to his/her highest potential.

Yes, Montessori is a wonderful approach, which helps the child develop to his/her highest potential. I’ll be posting more about it as I get more involved in the method. I’ll be sure to thank Morena for us finding each other!

LOL. That's what I do ALL. DAY. LONG. "What page again?" "What did you say?" "When is the test?" "Can we use our notes on the quiz?" ************* <strong> Ahhh, but therein lies the beauty of the Montessori system, Nance. It's all about the child taking control of his/her own learning process. :) And by the way, I don't want to teach long-term. I want to consult with parents and combine Montessori education with holistic nutrition in cases of children with ADD, Autism and other similar imbalances.</strong> Oh my dear…if you are tired of answering the same questions over and over again…what are you doing going into teaching!!!
