Title: Hello from England
Post by: murphy on May 23, 2005, 12:23:48 PM

Hi everyone,  I am a new member,my name is Pauline, living in England but am originally from Ireland.  My husband and i have recently purchased a villa in Fethiye and the plan is to move there by Christmas this year.  At the moment we are organising our container to be shipped out,the pets papers so they can come with us.  Meeting lots of hurdles along the way.  I am a Montessori teacher, and hope to use 1 room at the villa as a Montessori room.  I am not sure if i am allowed to do this, obviously i will need my working visa, but i was wondering if anyone knew if i am allowed to run a small bussinness from home without employing anyone as i need to build it up first.  Do you think there will be a requirement for Montessori.  I will teach all areas of the curriculum in English for children from age 2 years until they start school.
Thanks a lot.
Pauline

This might help those who don't understand what Montessori teaching is. Must admit I'd never heard of it. Picked up the Italian connection though -lol.

Well I know what Montessori is. Am I right in thinking it is a special approach to teaching infants which has it roots in structured learning and discplined creativity. But I dont know about the visa requirements. Sorry!! Hope it work out for you Pauline.
