The Montessori Method is an educational system designed to help children use their innate abilities to gain knowledge through self-motivation. With the gentle guidance of the instructor the children are provided with the necessary materials and lessons to help them learn at their own pace. The Montessori Method with its unique classrooms and instruction teaches each child how to learn rather than simply what to learn.
This fascinating approach to learning uses special teaching materials to take advantage of a childs sensitive years during which the young mind is most absorbent.
