MMC course can be fully funded by ERASMUS +  Mobility Program and any National and International education funds.

For Italian teachers, by Carta del Docente

MM– the Montessori Method to teach foreign languages to children. can be defined as an approach based on a full immersion in a language environment with self-corrective activities, fostering autonomy and the quintessence of problem-solving learning by developing the critical ability towards a foreign language.

The full application of Montessori’s principles enables a natural language learning among young students by fostering the use of communication in the target language, communication that will become more and more familiar thanks to the acquisition of new sounds, the shaping of facial muscles and the confidence.

Language learning is not presented as a school subject, but as a communicative tool that is integrated with all other subjects and routines.

Participants will be shown how to encourage students to build up their own personal language code.

In fact, a language is made of “communicative acts” and not of single words.

As stated by Dr. Montessori, after observation of children followed by scientific research, those communicative acts should be adapted to the child’s age, personal capability and pace.

  • How to prepare teacher’s own didactical material based on the principles of MMC. The material should match not only child’s age but also his cognitive development.
  • How to foster oral production following child’s pace, considering also Montessori’s “sensitive periods”

As sub-objectives, participants will:

  • acquire a common teaching/training method, to facilitate mobility and transnational exchanges
  • improve their professionalism, increasing their career opportunities on international level
  • get effective tools for raising the motivation on foreign language learning, thanks to this accessible, adaptable and flexible method
Methodology of the course:

The course provides theoretical studies and practical application of the MMC methodology through the encounter of Montessori pedagogy in its traditional application with the application in foreign language teaching

MMC is addressed to:

  • Language teachers with children (0-14)
  • Teacher trainers
  • Students of foreign languages
  • University students and graduated
  • The staff in the field of formal, non-formal and informal education
