ANANTHA PADMANABHA

With a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering and Business Management, Mr. Anantha Padmanabha entered the Montessori family when he was impressed by Ms. Radha Nagaraj who was an inspiration. He completed the IMTC course under Smt. Meenakshi Sivaramakrishnan in 2001.
His ambition of starting a House of children to follow the philosophy and principles became a reality with the beginning of ‘Prerana Montessori House of children.
A new beginning of achievement in his life was his becoming a Director of IMTC- south, Bangalore. Several students were trained under his guidance towards the growth of the Montessori Movement further. He became a secretary of IMC and this journey took to a different level and became a part of ‘Montessori Allied Services’ to bring out publications. While working with other organizations like Hindu Seva Prathishtaana, his heart was towards working towards children providing Montessori education to the economically backward parents and ‘Madhurya Montessori’ took its birth and is functioning very well even today. Anantha Padmanabha played a major role in organizing several Seminars, Conferences, In house training programmes, Montessori Assistants training, Second Saturday meetings for working Montessorians etc. His achievement touched the horizon with a feather in his cap when he donned the new role as ‘Vice- President International Affairs’ with his becoming a Director of Montessori courses in Vietnam. Under his Directorship and guidance, hundreds of students have been trained in Montessori philosophy and have made a beginning for several Houses of children to flourish. Today Ananth’s name is revered for his contribution in propagating the Montessori Movement not only in India but also outside the country.
