the Montessori difference

What is Montessori?

What is Montessori?

Maria Montessori identified 10 human tendencies which correspond to the 10 universal needs of mankind. The child becomes the creator of his own world by satisfying his natural instincts from Orientation to Self-perfection, which are the foundation of Montessori Education.

Mixed-Age Structure

Mixed Age Structure

Our classrooms offer a unique social environment where children 2.5 - 6 years old are able to work, learn, and socialize with one another in the same classroom. Children are able to observe and help one another, and learn how to be part of a diverse community.

Self-paced learning

Self Paced Learning

Children are able to choose work that excites them and are free to work with the material until they have derived a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. The Montessori materials promote repetition, exploration, and independent learning.
