Having first observed in a Montessori Prepared Environment over 13 years ago, Marianna Zaitceva developed a fascination with Montessori’s pedagogy, believing its application extends far beyond the classroom. She is currently completing the AMI Primary Diploma Training as a valuable addition to her Master’s Degree in Pedagogy. Marianna previously taught at an International School in England, comparing traditional and Montessori approaches, fully recognized the benefits of the latter.

Marianna’s daughter, now in her adolescent years, has greatly benefited from Montessori Education in her early childhood, shaping her into who she is today. Marianna believes that being in a profession that allows to serve and provide enrichment is a great privilege and very rewarding. 

Known for her kindness and unwavering belief in every child’s potential, Marianna brings extensive pedagogical, multicultural, and parent experience to our school. During her leisure time she cherishes moments spent with family and friends, enjoying nature, traveling around the world, cooking, and engaging in handwork. She is dedicated to creating a warm atmosphere and comfort in any setting she is a part of.
