Sharing the best education in the world with everyone, children and adults alike
This is the mission I chose over 20 years ago.
Developed over a century ago by Dr. Maria Montessori, the Montessori method is now the most widely used educational system in the world.
Based on children's natural needs, it can be adapted to all children, whatever their origin, culture or social environment.
It is also particularly well suited to children and adults with disabilities, as well as the elderly and those suffering fromloss of autonomy.
I used to be a school principal, from nursery school to secondary school. Today, I'm a globe-trotting trainer and consultant: I travel the world to meet educators and parents, and I see that families everywhere want an alternative to the traditional education system, which has shown its limitations.
As I continue my apprenticeship, I'd like to share it with as many people as possible.

Montessori conferences: Inspire, Challenge, Transform
Educating a child is much more than teaching knowledge: it's accompanying them in their development, giving them the tools to grow with confidence and build the world of tomorrow. As a Montessori trainer, father of 4 and passionate about education, I intervene to help parents, educators and professionals better understand the fundamental role of the adult in accompanying children, from birth to adolescence.
🎤 My lectures are not theoretical presentations: they are spaces for reflection, awareness-raising and concrete exchanges. With a pragmatic, sometimes offbeat and always accessible outlook, I deconstruct preconceived ideas about education to propose practical, immediately applicable keys.
Whether you're a parent, a teacher, a school principal, a childcare or support professional, my interventions are adapted to your reality and your challenges. Montessori is a tremendous lever, but it's above all the adult's posture that changes everything.

Testimonials*
"Even though I already knew that a child needs routines, putting it into perspective in relation to staff turnover in toddlers is very relevant and I hadn't thought about it, but now it's engraved in my heart!"
"I learned about the triangle of tasks-responsibilities-roles, very interesting! And the definition of work = effort + result. Very inspiring for everyday school life and for distinguishing between Montessori classrooms and after-school care!"
"I realized how important it is to position yourself as a parent when you're an educator and talking to a parent, reminding them that they are their child's 1st educator, that everything is a source of learning."
"I was confirmed in my choice to continue with this method for the next few years. I became aware of the importance of observing my child."
"I enjoyed the interesting exchanges with parents and teachers, and realized that we shared a lot of the same questions. In the end, I was convinced that placing my son in a Montessori school was the right choice."
"I'm really going to focus more on my own self-discipline (e.g. tidiness, household chores) so I can pass it on to my child."
