PHILOSOPHY
MONTESSORI EDUCATION
The Montessori system of education was proposed by Dr. Maria Montessori, Italy’s first woman physician who
also laid the ground work based on her scientific observation of a child’s learning process.
Guided by her discovery that children teach themselves, Dr. Montessori designed a “Structured Environment”
in which children could choose from a number of developmentally appropriate activities.
The system embraces learning through all five senses and not just through listening, watching or reading.
Children in Montessori classes learn at their own pace and get to choose their activities individuality.
Learning becomes an exciting, exploratory process leading to concentration and the love for learning.
Montessori focuses on and creativity while maintaining a structured environment, making the system popular
all over the world including the USA.
Studies show the Montessori educated children are well prepared for later life academically, socially and
emotionally. In addition to scoring well on standardized tests, Montessori children are ranked above
average on such criteria as following directions, turning in work on time, listening attentively, using
basic skills, showing responsibility, asking provocative questions, showing enthusiasm for learning and
adapting to new situations.
