FdA Montessori Pedagogy

Montessori is a developmental approach to education that recognizes and encourages the natural curiosity of children and their innate drive to learn. It emphasizes learning by doing, along with self-expression and collaboration. Montessori-educated children are confident, creative, and independent individuals, well-prepared for life. They become responsible decision-makers, respectful of the needs of others and their natural environment, with a life-long love of learning. In our course, you will study in-depth Montessori pedagogy and practices for the child aged between 3 and 6.
