WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE MONTESSORI TEACHER?
The Montessori teacher facilitates the classroom activity but does not lecture. She carefully plans the environment in the interests of the children and she helps the children progress from one activity to the next.
She is trained to educate each child individually and allows him to choose from many activities within his range of ability. She stands back while a child is working and allows him the satisfaction of discovery. Read more about our teachers at Beyond Montessori.
Does Beyond Montessori School employ current research and theory in education methods?
Yes. Montessori is not a static or closed system of education. While there are certain materials and methods that have proven effective over the years, Montessori is as much an attitude about education and children as it is a specific method with certain materials.
Our Accredited Montessori Teachers and Assistants enrich the children’s daily academic curriculum with creative arts, storytelling, drama, physical movement, music, ecological / environmental projects and so much more.
