Montessori Educational Philosophy


Montessori Education is guided by the work and writings of Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952). At its core, the philosophy is simple, to follow the child, which assumes that every child is a unique individual who is naturally driven to grow, develop and learn. The educational goals include instilling in children a love of learning, the ability to make appropriate learning choices, and respect for oneself, other people, and their physical surroundings.


  "Respect all the reasonable

forms of activity in

which the

child engages and try to 

understand them."

- Maria Montessori
