About the Business
During her studies in psychology education, philosophy and sociology, she was able to study the child from birth through all the stages of growth. Her approach to education was developed through her work with disabled and poor children in San Lorenzo (a district in Rome). Through her observations she noticed that a child was capable of absorbing knowledge and acquiring skills at a very young age. She developed a unique range of teaching materials and an educational phylosophy which is still internationally respected and practised.
The very essence of Maria Montessori teaching method is that every single child is treated with respect, given freedom within the limits of carefully designed classroom environment, and allowed to develop naturally at their own pace.
In a typical Montessori classroom the children choose from a wide range of self-educating and self-correcting activities, working with each other as well as individually.
