How many times have you explained the practical life or sensorial areas to parents unfamiliar with the Montessori method? With the Parent/Teacher Education (PTE) service, your parents will be able to watch professionally-produced videos on these and many other topics. Parents can access these videos from home or work, when it is convenient for them. You might show these videos at a parent education session and refer to them during your presentation.

With the ability to upload photos and videos of students working in your classrooms, parents can have a "virtual" observation. This allows them to view their child much more often and stay more connected to your school. They can view these photos and videos when it is convenient for them. Each parent can view them while discussing what they see with their spouse. They can watch them with their student so their child can share the experience of working in a Montessori classroom.
