Stimata/te Doamna/Domn, Ma adresez dumneavoastra pentru a-mi prezenta interesul referitor la postul de ''educator Montessori'', vizionat pe site-ul BestJobs.

Am absolvit Facultatea de Psihologie si Stiintele Educatiei, specializarea psihopedagogie, iar cunostintele mele teoretice, rezultate si din cursurile Psihologia copilului, Psihologia educatiei, Fundamentele psihologiei, Fundamentele pedagogiei, Psihologia personalitatii, Logopedia au contribuit la intelegerea etapelor dezvoltarii copilului si la cunoasterea metodelor, tehnicilor pentru stimularea achizitiilor specifice. De asemenea, formarile privind utilizarea metodelor specifice artelor combinate ( desen, muzic, joc, teatru scenic, micare, basm terapeutic, poveste terapeutic) au participat la dezvoltarea abilitatilor socio-educative. Interactiunea mea cu prescolarii (tipici, cu dizabilitati sau proveniti din grupurile de risc-refugiati in Romania-) consta in ghidarea acestora in procesul de coordonare motorie, oculara, dezvoltare senzoriala, a limbajului, a creativitatii individuale, a abilitatilor socio-emotionale, in deprinderea regulilor de convietuire sociala si de respectare a mediului inconjurator, contribuind la formarea si imbunatatirea imaginii de sine. Principiile educatiei Montessori, prin susinerea i sprijinirea procesului natural de dezvoltare a fiinei umane, prin libertatea de actiune a copilului, reprezinta pentru mine un model pedagogic adecvat. Drept urmare, manifest o deosebita apreciere pentru acest tip de mediu educativ.

Atasat acestei scrisori va transmit CV-ul meu si, in speranta unei intalniri in care sa pot detalia si alte aspecte privind abilitatilor mele.

Pe perioada studiilor am fost membru in diferite echipe de proiect, dezvoltandu-mi abilitatile de comunicare si lucru in echipa. Cunostintele mele avansate de AutoCad si Visio pe care le-am exersat in cadrul acestor proiecte ofera garantia ca sunt persoana potrivita pentru acest job. Consider ca stagiul de practica realizat in cadrul companiei ...in vara anului 2006 a fost pentru mine o sansa deosebita de verificare a cunostintelor teoretice dobandite in anii de studiu. In anul 2005 am obtinut atestatul CAE, ceea ce ma califica pentru cerintele postului dumneavoastra de cunoastere avansata a limbii engleze. Vizitand site-ul companiei am observat ca exista sanse reale pentru mine de a-mi atinge obiectivul de cariera si anume de a fi membru al unei organizatii puternice orientata catre tehnologii noi. Atasat acestei scrisori va transmit CV-ul meu si, in speranta ca v-am convins in privinta calificarilor mele, astept cu interes o intalnire in care sa pot detalia si alte aspecte ale abilitatilor mele. Ma puteti contacta telefonic la numarul xxx/xx xx xx sau pe adresa de e-mail... Imi manifest un deosebit interes pentru a discuta cu dumneavoastra. Cu respect, Nume candidat Metodele specifice artelor combinate ( desen , muzic, joc, teatruscenic , micare , basmterapeutic , povesteterapeutic, etc) i informaiile oferite n cadrul cursului sunt adaptate procesului instructiv-educativ din grdini. Cursanii vor dobndi abilitatea de proiectare, monitorizare i evaluare a activitii didactice prin utilizarea metodelor specifice artelor combinate. |

Each child is valued as a unique individual. Montessori education recognizes that children learn in different ways, and accommodates all learning styles. Students are also free to learn at their own pace, each advancing through the curriculum as he is ready, guided by the teacher and an individualized learning plan.

Beginning at an early age, Montessori students develop order, coordination, concentration, and independence. Classroom design, materials, and daily routines support the individuals emerging self-regulation (ability to educate ones self, and to think about what one is learning), toddlers through adolescents.

Students are part of a close, caring community. The multi-age classroomtypically spanning 3 yearsre-creates a family structure. Older students enjoy stature as mentors and role models; younger children feel supported and gain confidence about the challenges ahead. Teachers model respect, loving kindness, and a belief in peaceful conflict resolution.

Montessori students enjoy freedom within limits. Working within parameters set by their teachers, students are active participants in deciding what their focus of learning will be. Montessorians understand that internal satisfaction drives the childs curiosity and interest and results in joyous learning that is sustainable over a lifetime.

Students are supported in becoming active seekers of knowledge. Teachers provide environments where students have the freedom and the tools to pursue answers to their own questions. Self-correction and self-assessment are an integral part of the Montessori classroom approach. As they mature, students learn to look critically at their work, and become adept at recognizing, correcting, and learning from their errors.

Activitati preliminare il ajuta pe copil sa isi perfectioneze coordonarea miscarilor si il pregatesc pentru activitati mai complexe (folosirea lingurii pentru a muta malaiul dintr-un castron intr-altul, turnarea apei in pahar, etc.) Activitati legate de mediul inconjurator il ajuta pe copil sa invete sa respecte si sa ingrijeasca obiectele si spatial in care traieste si invata (curatarea legumelor, stoarcerea portocalei, lustruirea pantofilor, spalarea mesei, maturatul, etc.) Ingrijirea propriei persoane copilul invata regulile de baza ale igienei personale (spalarea mainilor, suflatul nasului, imbracare/dezbracare, nutritie, etc.) Respectul pentru ceilalti, politetea copilul dobandeste aptitudini sociale (mersul frumos, comunicarea, bunele maniere, punerea mesei, comportamentul fata de musafiri, etc.)
