Hello,
My name is Patty Langhurst. I have been at Villa Montessori School since
1981. I taught at the pre-primary level until 1995. I then moved up to
Elementary 1 and have been teaching at this level since then.
I graduated from ASU in 1975. I worked with handicapped children for a few
years before becoming interested in the Montessori Method. I have
Montessori certifications with 3-6 year olds (NCME) and with 6-9 year olds
(AMS) I look forward to another wonderful year.
Realizing the profound influence a teacher has on the life of a child that
is 6-9 years old I strive to be an inspiring role model in their presense.
I am committed to seeing the whole child, their strengths and their
struggles and then providing a nurturing, safe, organized, and fun
environment where each child can develop a strong spirit, a joy for living
and learning, strong academic skills and the confidence to go forward and
find their place in the world.
