Speaking Engagements
We love connecting with groups through workshops, keynotes, and professional development sessions. Whether for a conference or a PD day, we’ll tailor our Montessori principles to fit your needs and make them meaningful and actionable for you and your team.
Our mission
Gather Guides envisions a space where guides and community partners can access shorter-term certificates and professional development courses. Our focus is implementing Montessori principles in community spaces, professional organizations and educational institutions.
