Maria Montessori was an Italian physician, educator, and innovator, acclaimed for her educational method that builds on how children learn naturally.
She opened the first Montessori school—the Casa dei Bambini, or Children’s House—in Rome on January 6, 1907. Subsequently, she traveled the world and wrote extensively about her approach to education, attracting many devotees. There are now thousands of Montessori schools in countries worldwide.
Aksharam Montessori stands as a testament to the profound principles of Maria Montessori. Every aspect of our learning environment is intricately woven with her innovative approach, fostering independence, curiosity, and a lifelong love for learning. From hands-on activities to personalized journeys, we're dedicated to embodying Maria Montessori's vision, creating a nurturing space where each child flourishes uniquely.
Our classrooms prioritize the child's interests, needs, and pace of learning, allowing them to choose activities and explore subjects that captivate their curiosity.
Our classrooms have been meticulously designed to provide a rich and stimulating environment with age-appropriate materials that foster independent learning.
Students of different ages learn together in Montessori settings, promoting cooperation, peer teaching, and a sense of community.
Children are encouraged to take charge of their education by selecting tasks and activities, which helps develop decision-making skills and self-discipline.
Practical, hands-on materials are a cornerstone of Montessori education, enabling children to engage with concepts through physical experience
Our Montessori materials are designed to reflect the diversity of the world's cultures. Children have access to materials like maps, flags, and artifacts from different countries, allowing them to explore and learn about various cultures. Montessori places a strong emphasis on fostering empathy, and the development of peaceful, responsible global citizens.
