Thinking about a Montessori education for your child? We can help with tips & advice!
www.ourkids.net/montessori-sch...
Montessori is not a one-child-fits-all approach to education, children are encouraged to learn at their own pace and as a result teachers often find that students show better academic performance, emotional maturity and social skills. In fact many go on to lead exceptional lives.
Freedom within limits. This phrase is often used when describing one of the key components of a Montessori school - children learn best when they are given the reins to their education. In that respect Montessori schools are structured to allow students to have an active say in what, when and how they learn, with older students as mentors and teachers as helpful guides.

I’m a high schooler in a Montessori school. I love it and don’t regret transferring. I get to work in our garden, cook and take care of our animals all day. I’m learning how to take care of myself and how to care for other people which I’ve never learned properly.

@YouPube_X Жыл бұрын

Ok, and how do you do in, math, sciences etc. Genuine question. Gardening, cooking, animal care is great, but what about academics for higher education?

@rebeccarobin1 Жыл бұрын

@@YouPube_X They enrolled the juniors and senior into the international baccalaureate program. I do well with traditional academics. Scored well with my ACTS. I transferred to a public school for my senior year and I’m in AP classes. Just depends on the school Edit: My teachers were also really encouraging and motivating to do well in academics so we could be ready for the real world and careers. They taught academics to the younger students following the Montessori methods. Part of our Montessori learning is our choices in what we want to learn about. You want to look into being a zoologist? Great, look into it and we will schedule a time when we can meet a zoologist to learn about what it’s really like. Oh you said you want to be an author? Here is a list of authors we have contact with. Academics aren’t forgotten about, they just aren’t seen as the most important thing in our schooling.

My first elementary school closed and a Montessori school took over and I remember growing up feeling very resentful over the fact and had a bad connotation with Montessori schools. I lost many friends and had to change schools, which was a lot for me. ): But now, I see, as a 27 year old, that they aren't that bad at all. I might enroll my child in one, one day.

Hi! Please can someone help me with something? How does Montessori guide young people towards careers in terms of qualifications? I'm trying to educate myself on the Montessori approach because I've been biased against it all my life, but I'm newly a teacher myself, and I'm starting to realise just how many kids are simply not made for academic life. Moreover, academia is far from guaranteed to get you what you want and/or need from life, whereas this approach seems to make people much more well-rounded in skillsets from the start. So, with obvious pros like preserving mental health and nurturing innate interests, how else does the Montessori system help young people to find and establish careers in a qualification-obsessed world? Edit: the reason I'm asking on here is because I'd like some anecdotal evidence as well as all the glossy literature available online.

Montessori schools are a complete waste of time! I was advised by all of my business partners to not send my son there; I ignored the advice and sent him there. This is an outdated system and the bottom line is them making money. Their policies are a mess; children have no sense of anything there. I pulled my son from there and he is excelling so much. This school stumped his academic growth. Highly advise - do not send your child to these schools. Private is not always better than public. At least public schools are regulated.

Montessori was created in 1907 and public education during industrial revolution ~1850 so it's more outdated. Every child is different and there is no general advice where to go for everyone. That's why freedom is such a big value. It lets everyone choose. Make their own decisions. Glad you and your kid found your way but there is no reason for anyone to listen and follow same path.

Cause I haven't graduated school yet, but even I know their not going to "get to learn at their on pace" and do whatever the hell they want, some kids might go into high school not knowing a thing because they were aloud to read stories and do colouring sheets in school all day, they need to know how to do math and proper grammar, these kinds of schools just have kids in their own bubble
