Montessori Philosophy

The Montessori philosophy is rooted in deep respect for the child and their innate ability to learn naturally and effectively. We recognize that every child develops at their own pace, and we tailor our educational practices to honor that individuality. 

At The Montessori American School, we implement this teaching approach through a thoughtfully prepared environment that not only fosters curiosity and independence but also supports the child’s holistic development. The space is designed to be both welcoming and stimulating, offering materials that invite exploration and discovery—essential elements for meaningful learning.

We nurture their intelligence and empathy.

The Montessori philosophy supports the child’s holistic development, nurturing both intellectual growth and emotional empathy. Through self-directed learning, children learn to understand and respect others.

“Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.”
Maria Montessori

Vision

To create an environment where our students can marvel at the discovery of learning in peace and at their own pace. We want to inspire them to be self-sufficient, empathetic and capable of impacting the world through their ideas.

Mission

We wish to promote the integral development of our children through an individualized educational practice within the Montessori philosophy. In a nurturing environment, we promote values which are essential to becoming critical, independent, and responsible children.
