WMI | Preparing the Adult: Managing Burnout in the Montessori Classroom

Montessori teachers give so much of themselves to their students, their families, and their communities, and it’s easy to let your own well-being be the last priority. Join psychotherapist and former Montessori school counselor Jessica Kwerel, for an accessible, practical session on burnout, drawing on research and professional experience supporting teachers in this experience. Together we’ll explore what burnout really is, why educators in mission-driven environments are especially vulnerable, and develop practical tools for setting better boundaries to protect your energy and well-being. Participants will leave with strategies they can use right away and time to ask questions in an open Q&A.
