Dr Maria Montessori

Montessori education is a unique approach to the education of preschoolers. It was first developed by an Italian lady doctor and psychologist who had a deep understanding of the physical and mental development process of children. It is based on proven scientific principles and is currently successfully used in over 100 countries worldwide.

The Montessori method is particularly noted for taking the whole child into consideration. It provides a stimulating environment, which is both challenging as well as non – threatening for the young child. It promotes child learning on a variety of planes – language, mathematics, art, culture and practical life.

Montessori pre – schools over the world form a tight – knit community of unique educators who constantly keep in touch to exchange advances in child learning and education. A continuing stream of research and publications on the Montessori method ensure that it remains responsive to the changing demands of the modern day environment.
