Philosophy
Learning begins from birth. We believe in giving exposure to academics at an early age as young as 2 years. We provide Montessori didactics (materials) that are designed to arouse a child’s curiosity to learn. We work accordingly with the child’s pace, not his / her age. We intend to give your child a strong foundation in academics.
MONTESSORI PHILOSOPHY
Dr. Montessori believed that no human being is ever educated by another person. The child must do it by him / herself, or it will never be done. The Montessori objective is approached by first allowing each child to experience the excitement of learning by his / her own choice, rather than being forced. Secondly, the Montessori objective is to help him / her to perfect all their natural tools for learning so that they will maximize future learning situations.
Dr. Montessori's Practices and Principles:
- Children are the same regardless of culture
- Education should be an aid to the growth process
- The true nature of children is as outlined in her book, "The Normalized Child": that human society can be uplifted through this recognition
Dr. Montessori's "Normalized Child”
- Love of order
- Love of work
- Profound spontaneous concentration
- Attachment to reality
- Love of silence and working alone
- Sublimation of the possessive instinct
- Power to act from real choice and not from whims
- Obedience
- Spontaneous self-discipline
