Maria is on a mission to offer every child their right to an education and a brighter future! She brings years of experience as a Montessori teacher to MdC’s Education Program.

Learning is not just about sitting in a classroom and being taught. It involves engaged learning that combines subject knowledge with hands-on activities.
Exposure to letters and numbers in MdC’s preschool programs builds a foundation for knowledge. Students use play dough as a learning tool.
