SUMMARY:Webinar: The Montessori Method\, Continued: An Invitation to Make Real Change in the World with Andrew Faulstich!
DESCRIPTION:Description of Webinar: \nWhat does it truly mean to follow Montessori’s vision in today’s world? If education is\, as Montessori wrote\, the “best weapon for peace\,” then why does the world still feel so far from the peace she envisioned nearly a century ago? \nIn this session\, we’ll explore these questions not to arrive at simple or comfortable answers\, but to engage more fully with what it means to live Montessori’s philosophy in action. Together\, we’ll examine what truly makes Montessori a revolutionary pedagogy—and what it asks of us beyond fidelity to albums or method alone. \nRather than “following the method” in a literal sense\, this conversation invites us to consider what it means to embody Montessori’s deeper call: a transformation of the adult\, a recognition of our interdependence\, and a commitment to the emergence of the “New Human.” \nWho Should Attend: This webinar is designed for Montessori educators at all levels who are ready to engage in honest reflection\, meaningful questioning\, and ongoing spiritual and professional transformation. \nIf you’re seeking to reconnect with the heart of Montessori’s vision and explore how it calls us to real change in ourselves and our world\, this session is for you. \nHow to Register For This Event: \nPlease note: You may register at any time before the live event on Monday\, October 26th\, 2026. \nRegistration for the event will close at 6:45 PM ET the day of the live event.  \nIndividual Registration\n\n\nClick For General Registration: $45 per person\n\n\nClick For CGMS Alumni & Faculty: $35 per person\n\nPresenter Bio: \nAndrew attended a Montessori school himself through Upper Elementary\, which is why he returned to the method as a teacher. He opened two Montessori adolescent programs as a founding lead teacher at the middle and high school level. In those roles\, Andrew most enjoyed building deep relationships with students\, creating a holistic humanities curriculum\, and collaborating with adolescent practitioners across the country. \nIn addition to his work at Oneness Family School in Chevy Chase\, Maryland\, Andrew is the Co-Host of the Breaking the Paradigm podcast and an Affiliate Instructor of Montessori Teacher Education at the graduate level at Loyola University. He holds a Masters in International Educational Development from the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education\, a Bachelors in Anthropology from the University of Rochester\, an AMI Adolescent Diploma\, a micro-certification from Embracing Equity\, and a certificate from the Phillips Exeter Humanities Institute.
