Image
When founder and program director Dale Gausman began NAMC,   one of his goals was to make Montessori learning an inclusive experience that students could fit into their busy lives. From his own training and from running his local Montessori early childhood program, Dale knew how important well-written, complete Montessori manuals were to a teacher�s success.

And now you are getting calls, comments, and tweets from unhappy customers who think you are to blame? Unfortunately, the last scenario is a familiar experience for NAMC. In the past few weeks, we have encountered someone reproducing and selling multiple copies of our curriculum support material to purchasers who thought they were buying NAMC�s original work. This person illegally u...
