Pricy Education

我開這個Blog的原因是希望將我所熟悉蒙特梭利教學/理念及其他教學相關的資訊推廣開,有時候我也不太計較個人利益。 我是完成及取得Montessori Teaching Method Diploma,我在Modern Montessori International 修讀Montessori Teaching Method Diploma, ,其course outline其實是相等於AMI比起AMI佢還多了一科Curriculum我不是透過在線修讀,當然我明白MMI不及AMI popular但沒法子,我又沒有錢出國讀。我是經過240小時以上的課堂,完成8份功課,經過6小時的考試有written examination 及 practicium examination。而且我在10年前已註冊為QKT及CCW,現在在Montessori School任Bilingual Teacher. 我開的班收費相宜不是因為我學歷及經驗不足,而是我相信,Maria Montessori 當時在  “Casa dei Bambini” (貧民窟設立兒童之家) 照顧及應用她的教學法是出於她對小朋友的愛及對教育的理念,她希望透過教育令世界變得更美好。 我不明白為何時至今天,所辦的家長班/小朋友的班動輒也要幾千元或以上?買教學材料要花上幾萬元? 當然我也總不能完全免費地開班,坦白說我也希望自己所付出的努力是有回報,但我不會收幾千元一個course或叫家長買幾萬元的教學材料!
