What is Montessori Education?

Montessori education transcends traditional teaching methods. It’s a holistic, child-centered approach that views the child as naturally eager for knowledge, capable of initiating learning in a supportive environment. At our Sharanalaya World School, we’ve seamlessly integrated Montessori principles, creating spaces where children feel valued, heard, and actively engaged in their learning journey.

Who Was Maria Montessori?

Dr. Maria Montessori was a visionary beyond her times. As an Italian physician and educator, she observed children’s interactions with their environment, leading her to develop materials and methods that respected each child’s individuality. Her core belief was that children were self-learners, a groundbreaking idea that laid the foundation for Montessori education.

Why Teach Montessori?

Montessori education goes beyond academic excellence. It nurtures essential life skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence. At Sharanalaya, we’ve seen our students evolve into confident, compassionate, and socially responsible individuals. Our affiliation with the Indian Montessori Centre (IMC) stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to authentic Montessori practices.

Children collaborate, educators observe and guide, and the room itself is designed to cater to various learning modalities.
