    A Montessori teacher's role is to act as a guide and facilitator for students, rather than being the primary cause of their learning. Their key responsibilities include preparing the learning environment, carefully observing each child's progress and needs, and giving brief introductory lessons to spark the child's interest in further exploring materials independently. The teacher's goal is to nurture each child's innate curiosity, creativity, and independence so they can direct their own learning journey.

    ROLE OF A MONTESSORI
    TEACHER
    • A Montessori teacher is a guide, a facilitator and does not
    consider herself to be the primary cause of learning that occurs
    in her students. To understand the role of a teacher better lets
    look at the types of arts. There are two types of arts namely,
    Productive and cooperative.
    • PRODUCTIVE ARTS:
    • This is the art in which the activity of the artist is the principal
    and the only cause of production, such as shoemaker,
    carpenter, tailor, etc.
    • COOPERATIVE ARTS:
    • define the cooperative arts, we can say that in such arts the
    activity of the artist is neither the principal, nor the only cause
    of production. There are three very common cooperative arts,
    which includes:
    Productive and cooperative
    • Farming:
    • The art of raising plants and animals.
    • Healing:
    • The art of curing. (This includes doctors,
    physicians, surgeons, nurses etc)
    • Teaching:
    • The third one is what we are concerned with.
    • A Montessori teacher’s normal classroom practices
    involves:
    • Preparation of the environment
    • Observing the children
    • Giving lessons. Primary goal of the teacher
    A Montessori teacher’s
    normal classroom practices
    1. PREPARATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT: Montessori teachers
    would prepare the environment for the children which means to facilitate
    the children’s independence and ability to select the material of their own
    choice and they will select the activities that will appeal their interests and
    keeping the environment in perfect condition.
    2. OBSERVING THE CHILDREN: Montessori teachers are carefully
    observes the children’s progress, needs and their sensitive periods.
    They don’t just keep the track of all these developments but act as
    an dynamic link between children and prepared environment. They
    are constantly experimenting, modifying the environment to meet their
    perceptions of each child’s needs and interests and then noting the results.
    3. GIVING LESSONS: Montessori teachers keep their lessons as brief as
    possible. Their goal is to bring the children in a state of mind, so they will
    come back on their own for further work with the materials. These are
    some points which are necessary for the teachers:
    PRIMARY GOAL OF THE TEACHER

    • Montessori teachers are taught to nurture and


    inspire the human potential, leading children to
    ask questions, think for themselves, explore,
    investigate, and discover. Help them to learn how
    to learn independently, retaining the curiosity,
    creativity and intelligence with which they were
    born.
    • Montessori teachers do not simply present
    lessons; they are facilitators, mentors, coaches,
    and guides.
    Role Of A Directress
    Anne Burke Neubert, in a Way Of Learning (1973), listed the
    following elements in the special role of the Montessori teacher:
     Montessori teachers are the dynamic link between children and the
    Prepared Environment.
     They systematically observe their students and interpret their needs.
     They are constantly experimenting, modifying the environment to
    meet their perceptions of each child’s needs and interests, and
    objectively noting the results.
     They prepared a independent environment in which the children will
    able to freely select their work of their choice.
     They carefully evaluate the effectiveness of their work and
    the design of the environment everyday.
     They observe and evaluate each child’s individual progress.
    Role of the Directress
     They are supportive, offering warmth, security, stability,
    and non-judgmental acceptance to each child.
     They facilitate communication among the children and help
    the children to learn how to communicate their thoughts to
    adults.
     They interpret the children’s progress and their work in the
    classroom to parents, the school staff, and the community.
     They present clear, interesting and relevant lessons to
    the children. They attempt to engage the child’s interest and
    focus on the lessons and activities in the environment.
     They model desirable behavior for the children, following
    the ground- rules, of the class, exhibiting the sense of calm,
    consistency, grace and courtesy, and demonstrating respect
    for every child.
    Role of the Directress
    They are peace educators, consistently working
    to teach courteous behaviors and conflicts.
    They are diagnosticians who can interpret patterns
    of growth, development, and behavior in order to
    better understand the children and make necessary
    referrals and suggestions to parents. They respect
    and protect their students independence.
    They must know when to step in and set the limits
    or lend a helping hand, and when it is in a
    child’s best interests for them to step back and not
    interfere.
