Montessori is an educational approach developed by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 20th century. It emphasizes child-led learning, allowing students to explore subjects at their own pace. The classroom environment is designed to be engaging and accessible, with materials that promote hands-on learning and independence. In a Montessori classroom, children of different ages often learn together, fostering collaboration and social skills. Teachers act as guides rather than traditional instructors, observing and supporting each child's unique interests and developmental needs. This method aims to cultivate a lifelong love of learning and respect for oneself and others.
