The Structure of the KHT Montessori Online Course with Class Forum Example and 12-Month Syllabus
If you wonder about how the course is structured, check out this information by Karen Tyler about the forum based classroom: “Let’s be honest here, most of us are very busy with family, outside jobs, etc. We also all live in many different time zones. Most “virtual class rooms” require you to log in at a specific time to be part of a live webinar/class. Self-paced online programs do not offer the personal direction and discussion with a teacher nor classmates. We have created a Forum Based Classroom that can be accessed any day of the week any time day or night. You can log in on your schedule and read the lectures, ask questions, join in on the discussion and I check in daily to reply and keep the class moving forward. It is the benefits of a live classroom but on your schedule!”
You can see an example of the forum (answering the question: “Is Montessori education rigid?”) here. (Click on the forum image to see it at full size.)

I think Montessori exemplifies these quality. It lets the child explore and learn through the perfect environment created. I believe my children would flourish from this type of environment and way of learning.”

I used to homeschool my kid but after a familiar crisis and starting take her to a traditional school I feel lost and unhappy with this aspect of our lives, I’d love to turn back to the “good path”.
I’d love to win this! We’re a military family without access to a Montessori school so I plan to homeschool my little guy and this would really help with my confidence in doing so. Fingers crossed!
I’m really interested in the language and math subject areas because I feel like those are so uniquely Montessori that it would be great to have albums for those areas.
I am interested in the reading component of this program. My kids are currently attending a Montessorino school which only goes to 5 years old. Want to home school.
I love the Montessori method and would love to learn more so I can implement in my home and classroom
This would be great for my 4 yr old and me. I’m always looking to learn better ways to help my kids learn, be independent and gave fun doing it.
Looking for Montessori activities and techniques for the children
I’m a new mom. I have been researching alot on how to provide good life learning experience to my son. Based on my research, Montessori is very inline with the morals and values that I would like my son to experience and grow. I strongly believe KHT Montessori course is the best learning platform for me and my son.
I would love to study all 12 album and curriculum areas in KHT Montessori course
I am a new mom looking to home-school after growing up in public school myself. After much research, Montessori is the way I’d like to go, but we don’t have any schools nearby. We live in a remote farming community and would like to bring Montessori learning to our family as well as the families of children that live around us, so we can all benefit. It would be nice if home-school materials were tax deductible because they cost so much. I look forward to sharing with the neighborhood families so we can all learn.
I need as many tools in my teaching toolbox, so that I can reach every student. I love the hands on aspect of Montessori.
We are true believers and followers of Montessori teaching and learning. It is rewarding to see our children flourish!
It was only in my search for ways to teach my children that I came across Montessori and couldn’t get enough! At the time there were so few resources; no internet, no library, no bookstore, etc. The closest bookstore was over an hour away and I would grab up all I could find. I even had to make my own teaching aids… 🙂 Even with my primitive applications, it was incredible how my children absorbed learning!! It even helped my son when he struggled in junior high to go back to basics…. I want to win the course because I now have grandchildren who need this; plus my daughter has decided to home school her 5 children; is involved with a big home-school group who need this; and I want to finally learn how to do it correctly to share with the many children I work with, advise, mentor, etc. THANK YOU SO MUCH for offering this! It’s truly exciting and the possibilities are limitless!!!
This would be an amazing opportunity to better homeschool my girls.
Thank you so much for the chance!
I’ve been using Montessori methods to teach 2-3 year olds for a little more than a year, and Montessori is amazing!!! I have three grown children and a granddaughter who is 2, and all the principles it takes to foster a love of learning, problem solving, and perseverance is built into what I know about Montessori. After 16 years of teaching 4th grade, I now have 2-year-olds who are more engaged and self-regulated than I did with my 10-year-olds. I want to bring the excellence of Montessori to my grandchildren and students!
I’d love to win! There are no Montessori schools or preschools where I live and it would be wonderful to help my little explorers enjoy learning about the world.
I’d love to study Math and Zoology because of my little animal lovers. 🙂
I hope I win. I love to get multiple perspectives!
Our girls would love this! We recently relocated and the nearest Montessori school is over an hour away and, sadly, not an option for us anymore. Free online resources have been great but having an organized curriculum would be amazing.
I homeschool and incorporate Montessori methods as much as possible. This would be an amazing opportunity for myself and my children to win this. It would really enhance their education so much!
