About Little Gems Training Centre
A Learning Environment for Everyone
Since the early 2000s, LGTC has been a vital part of the Montessori community and movement, attracting educators from around the world to learn and implement the Montessori method in their classrooms. With a broad range of Montessori materials and a deep understanding of Montessori philosophy, the LGTC is an exceptional environment to learn about this fascinating form of education.
The LGTC operates within an active Montessori preschool where children come and play everyday. The educators at the LGTC are working early years educators that deliver individualised curriculum to each child everyday. In the same way as we approach child learning, we apply the same method to our adult students. At the LGTC we use a variety of learning techniques to ensure that our adult students are receiving an education based upon their strengths and individual learning styles.
Meet Carola
The owner and director, Carola Lång-Howard – MA., BA Hons., Mont. Dipl. – is a qualified Montessorian with several years of experience in the field of Early Childhood. Her interest in Montessori began 30 years ago when she became a mother. She had the opportunity to study the Montessori philosophy and method while living in Kuwait. There she began her career by initially working as an assistant teacher while studying, and as a Directress when qualified.
In 1997 Carola and her family moved to Bahrain where she decided to start up her own Montessori Nursery. She became a Montessori pioneer as it was very much a new concept to Bahrain and as a result the Montessori philosophy is now well known.
In 1999 Carola and her family relocated to London where she furthered her career by becoming a Montessori Teacher Trainer and later began to lecture at MCI. She is also a Montessori examiner and a Teaching Practice Tutor.
