How is a Montessori school different?

In a Montessori school, Montessori teachers are guides who provide children a prepared environment to grow physically and intellectually. Young children are shown how to pour liquids, write letters, and compute sums while older children are shown research techniques, their internet search skills are honed, and more progressive forms of writing and maths is introduced. When children demonstrate significant independence, they embark upon a lifetime of good work habits, self-discipline, and a sense of responsibility.

Who is Maria Montessori?

Maria Montessori was born in Italy in 1870, a country which was particularly conservative in its attitude toward women at that time. Montessori was the first Italian woman to become a physician, facing several hurdles. She went on to teach at the University of Rome's medical school and came into regular contact with the children of the poor through its free clinics. Through her work, she became persuaded that each and every child is born with an incredible human potential that can only grow if, within the first few years of life, adults provide children with the right stimuli.

What are the three main characteristics of Montessori education?

The specially designed environment, the specially prepared equipment and the specially trained instructor are the three characteristics of the Montessori Method. In a traditional Montessori approach, even if one of them is absent, it is not a Montessori approach. Thus these are the three limbs or the three agents of the Montessori approach. Montessori believed that the care given to the child had to be indirect. For the child to support himself, the teacher should make it possible. Without the child realising that they have been helped, the three agents can offer support as subtly as possible.
