"One test of the correctness of educational procedure is the happiness of the child.

— Maria Montessori

Carmen is bringing Montessori education to the next level."






" Carmen is exploring what this next generation of children really needs: complete faith in their capabilities and environments that nourish true authentic learning with joy."

"The way Carmen presented Maria Montessori's philosophy gave me that 'Aha-moment'. The structure I learnt gives me freedom for my work with the children.

BRINGING JOY TO LEARNING!

Children are devoted to learning from birth onward.

They are joyfully self-motivated and guided by natural curiosity, stages of development, and sensitive periods.

Often their playful activities are self-directed learning processes.


How can we keep the natural zest for learning alive, or how can we re-kindle it?

Carmen Gamper provides parenting classes, consulting and workshops for educators, parents and home-schooling families, Pre/K-8:
• Information and practical tools for child-centered education
• Enrichment for traditional schools, Montessori and Waldorf schools
• Hands-on learning for all subjects of the curriculum
• Self-directed learning techniques from Montessori, Wild, Froebel, Freinet, Waldorf and Reggio Emilia education.

Our fun and inspiring workshops are based on the cutting-edge science of epigenetics and neuro-cardiology, which acknowledge the significance of prepared environments and positive emotions during the learning process.
