What is Montessori education? I’m curious about how it works and how it differs from traditional teaching methods.

Montessori Education is a school involving children that emphasize independence, interactive learning, and self-learning progress. It is aimed at the cultivation of curiosity, critical thinking, and socialization by preserving structured learning environments that encourage natural growth since a very young age.

Montessori education is a child-centered approach to learning developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. It emphasizes hands-on, self-directed learning, where children explore and discover at their own pace within a prepared environment. Montessori classrooms are designed to foster independence, creativity, and a love of learning, with mixed-age groups and specially designed materials that support each stage of development.
