THE MONTESSORI PHILOSOPHY

The Montessori Philosophy is based on years of patient observation of the nature of children and has proven itself of a universal method of teaching. Race, colour, nationality or social rank makes no difference to its successful method. The method is based on the child's imperious need to learn by doing and has a profound respect for the child's personality, enabling the teacher to deal with each child individually in each subject.

Each child works at his or her own pace, and has the freedom of choice in the classroom. Children pursue their own self-paced curriculum, and learning takes place individually or in a small group. The Montessori Method develops the whole personality of the child, not merely the intellectual faculties, but also to become a self-directed, self-disciplined person.
