Key Principles of the Montessori Method
Individual Approach
We consider each child's abilities, pace, and learning style, helping them open the door to the scientific world.
No Grades, No Homework
We rely on internal motivation for learning. Practice takes place in the classroom, freeing up evenings for family.
Mixed-Age Classroom
Children aged 6-12 learn together, developing social skills. Younger ones look up to older ones, who become mentors.
Freedom & Responsibility
The child chooses their own activities, which develops their internal motivation and responsibility for their choices.
