“The greatest sign of success for a teacher… is to be able to say, ‘The children are now working as if I did not exist.”
— Maria Montessori
Montessori Guides: Teachers Who Lead with Heart
At Montessori School of Miami Shores, our teachers are more than instructors—they are trusted guides who walk alongside each child on their unique journey of learning and discovery. Trained in the Montessori method and deeply committed to child development, our educators observe with care, guide with intention, and lead with respect.
Rather than directing from the front of the classroom, Montessori guides move purposefully throughout the environment, offering individualized lessons, encouraging independent exploration, and supporting each child’s growth at their own pace. They create space for curiosity, joy, and mastery—fostering not only academic achievement but also confidence, compassion, and character.
Our teachers build meaningful relationships with their students and families, nurturing a classroom culture of trust, belonging, and mutual respect. They model grace and courtesy, cultivate peace, and celebrate the spark within every child.
At the heart of our school is a team of passionate, reflective, and experienced educators who believe deeply in the potential of every learner—and feel honored to witness their transformation each day.
