Oh, I'd love to share my experience with you! Studying early childhood education was such a rewarding journey for me. I learned all about child development, teaching strategies, and creating engaging activities for little ones. It was amazing to see how much impact I could have on their growth and learning. Plus, the practical experiences and internships really helped me apply what I learned in real classrooms. If you're considering it, I'd say go for it! It's a beautiful field where you can make a difference in children's lives.

Completing the Montessori Teachers Training course has enriched my understanding of child development and the Montessori philosophy. It provided practical insights into creating a prepared environment that fosters independent learning and nurtures a child's natural curiosity. The emphasis on observation skills and adapting teaching methods to individual needs has been invaluable in creating a positive and effective learning environment for my students.

DISCLAIMER

Asian College of Teachers (ACT) undertakes a continuous review of its teacher training courses to ensure imparting high quality education. However, there might be circumstances outside of ACT’s control which might affect its stakeholders like if you are planning to teach in a different country, applying for a teaching license, pursuing higher studies or trying to get the certificate approved by the Ministry of Education (MoE) of a particular country then you can do so with the certificate issued by Asian College of Teachers (ACT). However, each country’s Ministry of Education (MoE) or educational bodies set certain standards that are indispensable for the pursuit of higher studies or teaching in schools in that country. So it can be a possibility that you may be able to use the certificate for higher studies or teaching purposes in one country and not in another. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you investigate thoroughly and check with the relevant authorities regarding the acceptance of the certificate issued by us before you enrol on a particular course. ACT strives to offer high-quality education and its certificates can be valuable for various purposes internationally, but still it is crucial for individuals to verify the specific recognition of the certificate in the country they intend to use it, especially for formal education or professional licensing purposes. This approach ensures that the stakeholders make informed decisions regarding their educational and career paths.
