The Montessori Philosophy teaches a progressive curriculum that uses child-directed learning, backed by observation and scientific research, as its core value. At the center of Montessori education is self-direction. Instead of being traditionally taught, kids are encouraged to make their own choices in the classroom, with a teacher to guide them along the way. Italian educator and physician Dr. Maria Montessori, who founded the Montessori movement in 1907, concluded that children are highly motivated to learn and teach themselves when placed in a carefully designed environment and given the opportunity to work for long, uninterrupted periods of time.
