Bio
Kathy Midkiff
I had the opportunity to mentor and work with Suzanne as she expanded her Montessori certification. She has a very natural way of working with children from primary through adolescent. Her understanding of Dr. Montessori’s research and methodology, as well as the planes of development, is thorough and implemented in all she does. Children of all ages and abilities are drawn to her and experience acceptance and success. Suzanne possesses excellent organizational skills allowing her to maintain a thriving classroom, while completing virtual tasks and serving the community in various roles. Her lessons are thorough and she has an acute sense of when a student needs her to shift the focus or regroup. I’ve had to opportunity to work with Suzanne for six years, at two different Montessori schools. She is an asset to any staff and always considers what is best for the child. Students on the spectrum and with learning differences excel under her guidance. Anyone who works with her, whether adult or child, benefits from the time spent with her.
