HCC disseminates MMLT in Greece
HCC has conducted an in-depth research for the Montessori methodology in Greece and has disseminated MMLT in 3 workshops and seminar weekends conducted in Athens, in the Montessorian Multicentre, where various Montessori experts alongside with teachers, librarians, art pedagogues gather and are informed on the Montessori approach. We have also informed many language teachers that participate in our face to face teacher training seminars in Athens and other European cities (Milan, Barcelona) as well as our online teacher trainees and many of them have shown interest for the MMLT piloting. The MMLT has been presented in all our Greek language seminars in Athens and Lesvos to a wide public of people involved in language learning (teachers, interpreters, translators, writers) as well as in its online language training. HCC's team is enthusiastic as MMLT has been the reason of contact with very important personalities in the field of education, like Professor Maria Zafrana, whose teacher Maria Goudeli was an actual student of Maria Montessori herself ! Professor Zafrana alongside with experts like Mrs Mavridou (AMI certified), Mrs Berketi and Mrs Papadopoulou have kindly expressed the opinion that MMLT Project promises to be valuabe in disseminating Maria Montessori' s important pedagogical heritage as in Greece Montessori methodology is not widely known...
