An Enduring Passion for Montessori Teaching

“To build a better world was Montessori's lifelong mission. Her pedagogical approach was a way to reach that goal, to transform humanity. She showed us to help children uncover their own potential. Each child has a great responsibility being part of humanity.” - Delfina Tomassini, November 2020

Delfina Tommasini is one of the oldest surviving people to have been trained by Maria Montessori herself: a student of Montessori’s 1950 course in Perugia, Italy.

Delfina has remained active as a Montessori teacher throughout her working life, and she continues to be dedicated to Montessori’s principles and vision.
