Montessori

Montessori education, developed by Maria Montessori in the early 1900s, is more relevant today than ever. It’s fascinating to see how this philosophy, implemented worldwide, is now backed by neuroscientists who say it shapes our brains perfectly.

There are so many essential elements of Montessori that simply work:

• Hands-on materials that engage learners deeply.
• Multi-age classrooms fostering collaboration.
• Learning at an individual pace, (as opposed to one-size fits all).
• Long-lasting relationships built through consistent community.
• A strong focus on essential “soft skills” — the ones we all wish our co-workers and employees had.

You can find plenty of information about Montessori online. But here’s something interesting: it’s not just educators getting excited about this method; it’s also the business world. Companies are taking notice because they’ve seen how Montessori graduates perform — how they lead, innovate, and collaborate. Montessori education doesn’t just teach kids—it builds better humans. Humans who know how to empathize, produce, and appreciate the process along the way.
