The Montessori School of McLean is thrilled to announce that an Early Childhood Montessori Teacher Education Program has returned to Northern Virginia – The Montessori Institute of McLean!
Montessori Institute of McLean (MIM) directors and faculty have many years of experience as instructors and consultants at the Northern Virginia Montessori Institute (NVMI) and the Institute for Advanced Montessori Studies (IAMS), and they are delighted to offer this program and share their passion for the Montessori Method.
With the opening of MIM, we look forward to expanding the reach of the Montessori philosophy in Northern Virginia. By offering an exceptional early childhood training program with highly experienced instructors, MIM will bring a Montessori education to even more children in the metropolitan area as we train new teachers in the decades to come.
