Sending your child to a Montessori school is a decision that will positively impact them for the rest of their life. These are just a few of the many reasons to choose a Montessori preschool for your child’s early education.
Great Teachers
The best part of enrolling in a Montessori school is knowing that your students will have access to the best early education teachers in the world. Montessori teachers are taught compassion, attentiveness, and competence – all of which are then passed on to the children they interact with. All Montessori instructors know that in order to teach, you need to be able to lead.
Montessori teachers act as role models for the students, and they sculpt their lives in a way that they would feel comfortable having the children look up to. This means being kind, thoughtful, intelligent, and hardworking. After all, the way you live your life reflects on your personality, and your students will try to be like you when they grow up. Montessori teachers know this, and their dedication is readily apparent both in the classroom and out.
Comfortable Classrooms
Montessori classrooms are designed especially for the children who will be learning in them. The tables are short, the chairs are small, and the shelves are low enough for kids to grab items and put them away after they’re done with an activity. The atmosphere is orderly without being overly stiff, and the decorations are natural to avoid distractions.
The result is a calm and comfortable environment where kids feel safe focusing entirely on their coursework. Entering a Montessori classroom is like stepping into a world where learning is easy and everything is made for child-sized hands. Students love their classrooms, and parents love seeing their children excited to go to school.
Strong Philosophies
The Montessori method was developed over a century ago, and all of its basic tenants remain the same. Dr. Montessori believed that children want to learn and that their natural creative energy should be fostered. She created a system that encourages kids to enjoy their work rather than to dread it. Even if the learning materials and lesson plans change, this philosophy will still lead teachers, parents, and students to success.
Many new Montessori parents are drawn in by the simplicity of the philosophy and the quality of the results. Once they learn how the method works, many parents start applying the basic tenants to other aspects of their children’s lives.
