Comments from B2P Teachers

I have been working at B2P for the last three years. Before joining this school I worked at a pre-school run by the provincial council. I was not paid any salary for my service. I worked there for six years. Then joined B2P when it started. I’m one of the pioneer staff members at B2P.

At this school I was given a Montessori Teacher Training. The knowledge that I gained from that training can not be compared to any other educational qualification that I have received before. I’m always grateful to Madam Bernadine and to the other two teachers who trained, and guided us to better teachers.

From this training we learned to observe a child and understand the child so that we could help and guide the child in a better way.

Now I feel financially secured. From my salary I’m able to assist my children in their studies.

Thank you.

After following a teacher training course in Galle I joined B2P. And we were given Montessori training. During this training we were not only taught about giving ‘presentations’ but also how to talk to a child, to understand a child, and to identify and help a child who is in need.

At the moment all the teachers at B2P are following a Tamil lesson program. This helps us to understand and respect other nationalities.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who trained us and guided us during our training program.

Thank you.

From the Montessori training that we received from B2P, we were trained to understand and work with children between the ages 2 ½  to 5 years. From this training we learned that for a child’s total development it is necessary to guide him in the correct path at the correct time.

The montessori training developed my interest about children. After the training I was enrolled as a teacher at the B2P Montessori. To me it was a dream come true. Today from my salary I’m able to help my younger brother in his studies.

Thank you.

I think the knowledge that I received from the Montessori Teacher Training cannot be compared to any other educational qualification that I have received before. It helped us to see a child from a different perspective. This training not only trained us in giving presentation, but also taught us about the sensitive period in a child and about the absorbent mind of the child. This helped us to understand a child and help him at the correct time.

After completing the training I was enrolled as a teacher at B2P. I enjoy working with children.

With the salary I receive from the school I’m able to cover my expenses, and to save a little for my future.

Thank you.

Thanks to the Montessori training that I received from B2P, today I’m able to look at a child in a different and from a better angle. The knowledge that I gained from this training is more than what I learned for 13 years years in my school education. For that I will always be grateful to Ms Liesl and to Ms Tharanga. And to Madam Bernadine for giving us this opportunity.

After following the Montessori teacher training I was able to join B2P Montessori School. Today I’m able to help my younger sister in her studies with the salary that I receive from B2P.

Thank you.
