Claudine came to Montessori education by way of a twenty-year career as a lawyer. That kind of bold reinvention says a lot about who she is — someone who follows her convictions all the way.
Since 2019, she has been working with children ages 6 to 12, bringing with her a remarkable depth of training. She holds Montessori certifications for both the 3-6 and 6-12 environments, specialized training in supporting children with specific learning needs through an ABA-Montessori approach, and additional certifications in facilitating philosophy workshops, mindfulness practices, and nonviolent communication with children.
Before joining our school, she taught in private institutions, coordinated an inclusive education program at the primary level, and ran philosophy-based workshops in schools throughout the region.
What drives her, at the core, is a belief that education should do more than teach facts. She wants children to learn how to listen, think critically, and find their own sense of discernment, because she sees those skills as the foundation of a kinder, more just, and more thoughtful world.
