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 would love to win the training course because I am very interested in educating my son in the Montessori method and this would jump start my attempts! Thanks!
I have taught public school for 10 years and recently became a SAHM when my son was born in 2008. His birthday is just past the cut-off for him to attend preschool this year so we’ll be doing it at home! This would give us some awesome tips for doing it right and getting him ready.

My son turns two in a month. I would love to have this valuable resource for him!

i have “liked” living montessori now on facebook so that i can grow my repetoire of teaching tools.
i have been involved with preschool education as both an assistant and classroom / lead teacher. i would like to incorporate more of montessori’s activities, philosophies. alas, i teach in a very small school and there is little to no extra monies to help with the cost of professional development / training. with this in my hands, i not only could grow as a teacher and expand my tools, but could surely encourage others around me. pay it forward, if you will.

I’d like to win this set to incorporate Montessori into our home “life.” I don’t technically homeschool, but I feel like all the wonderful time we spend at home is always learning. As an educator, I have the summers off, and I’m really enjoying this time with my 1 and 3 yr olds. We use Montessori a lot as routines and activities.

As a long time homeschooling family, I believe this program would be a huge blessing to our family. Our former micropreemie son will be 5 this fall and Montessori seems to be the perfect fit for him. I would love to learn more!
I like Living Montessori Now on Facebook.
I am a stay at home mom to 3 and 1 year old boys and I would love to have this training and curriculum to use with them!
