Onsite Workshop - Montessori Leadership in Practice: How to Bridge the Gap Between Theory and Everyday Practice
Leading a Montessori school requires more than understanding Montessori philosophy, presenting materials, and preparing the environment. You must support teachers, observe classrooms, speak with parents, manage conflict, and keep the school moving in one direction, all without making every decision yourself.
In this two-day workshop with Dr. Paul Epstein, Ph.D. (a Montessori educator with over 40 years of experience as a teacher, school administrator, researcher, consultant, and author of An Observer’s Notebook and co-author of The Montessori Way), you’ll learn the eight principles of Montessori leadership and how to apply them to everyday leadership tasks, from guiding teachers and observing classrooms to managing conflict and building a more aligned school culture.

Onsite Workshop - The Practical Life Foundation: Getting Children Ready for Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic
Before children can read, write, or understand mathematics, they need something more fundamental: concentration, coordination, order, and independence. These are not built through worksheets or drills, they are built through Practical Life.
In this live workshop with Punum Bhatia, PhD (international Montessori educator, teacher trainer, and school founder with over 35 years in the field, and one of the educators who trained STT’s own Master Trainer, Jenny Amar), you will discover why Practical Life is the most misunderstood area in Montessori education, how it lays the groundwork for reading, writing, and arithmetic, and practical strategies to strengthen it in your classroom or at home.

5 Days. 10 Speakers. A Summit That Will Change How You Educate.
Twenty-one years ago, everything began with one decision, and a belief that how we guide children today matters.
We’ve kept learning since. And we’d love for you to learn with us.
To mark 21 years, we’re doing something we’ve never done before: bringing 10 speakers together in a single event. Five days of real conversations about what it actually takes to raise and educate children well.
Each speaker brings something different: understanding what drives your child’s natural development, supporting children with special needs, integrating values into Montessori practice, the eight senses and how they shape learning and behaviour, the art of observation, understanding the elementary-age child, healing yourself before guiding others, building an inclusive Montessori school, the journey of starting your own, and what Montessori truly sees in a baby’s first year.
Honest, practical, and directly applicable wherever you are in your journey.
You don’t need a Montessori background to join. You just need to care about the children in front of you.
Date: 17–21 June 2026 (Wednesday–Sunday)
Time: Weekdays 6:00–8:45 PM WIB · Weekends 10:00 AM–12:45 PM WIB
Platform: Online via Zoom

Onsite Workshop - Membangun Fondasi Matematika yang Kuat Sejak Dini
Many parents today are eager to teach their children math as early as possible. We want them to be school-ready, confident with numbers, and sharp in their logic. However, we often fall into the “rote memorization” trap: children become fluent in reciting numbers but lose the actual meaning behind them. Without a proper foundation, math will only become a heavier burden as the child grows older.
In this 3-hour workshop designed for both teachers and parents, you will walk away with a clear roadmap—not just more questions.
Date: Sunday, May 17, 2026
Time: 09:00 AM – 12:00 PM WIB (3 hours)
Location: Sunshine Teachers’ Training — Bintaro (Jl. Pondok Betung Raya No. 86, Pondok Aren, South Tangerang)

Implementasi PPKSP di PAUD & TK: Panduan Praktis Membangun Budaya Perlindungan Anak Sesuai Perkembangan
Want to teach children how to protect themselves — but not sure where to begin?
Talking to young children about body safety is not straightforward. Without the right guidance, the topic can feel heavy, awkward, or risk leaving children more confused than informed.
In this 2-hour webinar, you will learn directly from Ms. Asalia Devianti — Contributing Author of the official PPKSP Module from Indonesia’s Ministry of Early Childhood and Primary Education — covering how to recognise different forms of abuse, understand their impact on the developing brain, and integrate child protection into your early childhood curriculum in a practical, age-appropriate way.

Registration Fee: IDR 299,000
(30-day access to the recorded session, PDF handouts + PPKSP Module, and e-certificate of participation.)
Live Workshop - Observation Made Simple: What, When & How to Observe — and How to Use It for Planning
Do you observe regularly — but still feel your notes aren’t really helping your planning?
Keeping records and observing with purpose are two different things. Without clarity on what to look for, even the most diligent notes can fall short of reflecting what’s actually happening in a child’s development — and planning suffers for it.
In this two-day workshop with Dr. Paul Epstein, Ph.D. — author of An Observer’s Notebook and globally respected Montessori educator — you will learn to observe with greater clarity and purpose, and use what you see to plan with confidence.
Date: 25–26 April 2026

Location: Harris Hotel and Convention – Kelapa Gading
