What I love most about Montessori:

The aspect of Montessori I love most is the empowerment of young minds through meaningful tasks.

My favorite classroom material:

Music at our school is amazing because our preschool students learn material most people don't even come into contact with until high school! I don't tell them it's difficult and they just get on with it!

What brings me joy outside of the classroom:

Outside of music, I like to spend time in my garden, build gadgets, clean up beaches, and above all eat good food!

FAVORITE MONTESSORI QUOTE

"Joy, feeling one's own value, being appreciated and loved by others, feeling useful and capable of production are all factors of enormous value for the human soul."

"This is a school that understands and nurtures every child as an individual while helping them learn to be a constructive member of the school as a whole. Our son was identified as having learning difficulties in 1st grade, two grades earlier than dyslexia is typically identified. They helped us find a great specialist teacher to help and integrated his extra tuition seamlessly into the normal day. The school is currently expanding to take kids through to 6th grade, eliminating the difficult task of finding a school of equal quality for those vital formative years."
