Nothing about the Montessori method is unique because most modern educationists have been deeply influenced by her philosophy and have absorbed a part of her method into their own. But this is the point. Only in a Montessori school is the whole of her method and philosophy applied.
Maria Montessori was actively involved in teaching and in the training of her teachers right up to the time of her death in 1952. Through her work she revealed the small child as a lover of work – intellectual work — not work forced on him but work he chooses spontaneously and carries out joyfully. Although her methods did not take America by storm until after her death it is now sought after by many leading American educationists and above all by parents who find from experience that young children are wanting and ready to learn much more than they are allowed.
