THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. SEE BOTTOM OF POST FOR ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE WINNER!
I’m so excited to announce another fabulous giveaway sponsored by Karen Tyler at World Wide Montessori Online! I don’t do a lot of giveaways … but Karen Tyler sponsors AMAZING giveaways! I was fortunate to host one of Karen’s course giveaways before, and I’m VERY HAPPY to be able to give another lucky person the chance to win Karen’s Montessori training course and 12 Montessori teacher training albums!
I wrote before about Karen Tyler’s Montessori Training Course and gave you ways to get her wonderful geography album and 3-part botany and zoology cards for free. In Karen’s training course, not only do you receive 12 albums with over 5,000 pages of activities and presentations, but you also receive lectures and can correspond with Karen, a certified AMS teacher, throughout your course. You may schedule Skype consultations with Karen as well. And even though it’s a course that gives you huge amounts of helpful information, there’s no pressure … there aren’t tests or assignments, and you can take the course totally at your own pace.
Karen will be starting a new Montessori Training Course on September 1. I highly recommend her training! Read about it in my earlier post. Karen also has all the details at World Wide Montessori Online.
Now for the Giveaway:
What You Will Win: Karen Tyler’s Complete Montessori Training Course that starts September 1 AND the 12 Montessori teacher training albums/manuals that are full of curriculum!!! (Depending on your payment plan, this would normally cost $150-240 … and it’s worth much, much more than that!)

I’m a stay-at-home mom to a 3.5 year-old son and 2 year-old daughter. Before motherhood, I was an English teacher, and deep in my heart, I remain a teacher. I’ve been reading all I can about Montessori education and believe this is an excellent path for my children. I would love to win this giveaway for our homeschooling adventures.
My daughter has been in Montessori preschool and I’d like to continue the Montessori teaching style over the next years because I like the teaching tools and methods.
I have always wanted to do Montessori training but have never had the time or finances. I would love to win this course!!
Just liked “Living Montessori Now” on FB.
This year my daughter turns 3 in October, when she was 1.6 years, I did everything I could to start building the foundation for a Montessori room feel for her, so she could easily reach out to her own toys and racks. I love how Montessori teaching can build the strongest foundations from letters to numbers, observing the child and his sensitive periods. I’ve been looking to do a Montessori course to begin homeschooling with her, that would be ideal considering I am currently a Stay at home mother. Winning this giveaway fill further bolster my wishes to pursure Montessori education for my child. I hope to eventually look for a teaching job. I stay in the UAE.
