    While some schools may be affiliated with a faith, the vast majority of Montessori schools are independent and nonsectarian. The spirituality that I mention has to do with one's sense that we are part of the web of life, that the Earth is part the cosmos, and that we are all part of the human family. We seek to inspire a sense of wonder, global understanding, a tradition of giving back to our communities through service, and a sense of personal integrity and peace.

    Well Said! I agree. My children received a Montessori education for 5 yrs & loved every minute of it! They eagerly craved learning. They were the only children in our neighborhood missing school on their breaks. Montessori children are respected as a whole by the purest form of education available. Just as each parent cherishes their child's 1st smile to their 1st words... so too does the Montessori Way of education with their gentle and nurturing guidance, that creates a Love of Learning =)

    No. I grew up with early Montessori education; and yes, I didn't do well in school as i couldn't be "told" what to learn. however i have a LOVE for learning I carried my whole life, everything i have learnt i taught myself, i went the direction i wanted to go not the direction i was told go. Now i teach children these skills, Sadly the Education System is ALL wrong, people are not ready for montessori school age &high school guidance. we need about 3 more generations of new thinkers b4 change

    Haha this is so awesome - I went to Montessori for 7-8 years [I'm 16 now] and it's all so true! Just didn't realize that what I am is what they were going for all along lol

    I have to agree with this also. I go to a montessori school now, and everything he's saying is actually true.

    yes if you want to evaluate the outcomes of public school education just look at Black Friday and that in a nut shell is what it produces!!
    Montessori produces confident loving free thinking children

    Of course. One need not go to a Montessori school to think, learn, or teach like a Montessori educator or child. People with similar attitudes tend to value it, choose it for their children, and find it compelling as adults.

    It sounds great, but I still need to do my research. Is it religious? I have a two year old son, so I'm looking at all my options. I've just discovered Montessori yesterday.
    Thank you for this great video!!

    My friend has made app for montessori kids "Montessori Early Childhood Activities Train 2". But I am not sure whether I should allow kids to learn through app. What I found is kids love gadgets. Its hard to keep them away from mobile and say no. So I thought of letting them play this learning game instead of wasting time on some other games. What are the thoughts of experts on this?

      I am not expert on this subject. But I think children below age 5 should not be allowed to spend much time on screen. Its good idea though that whatever time they spend on screen, it should be productive and help them learn. So instead of letting kids play some violent stupid game its better to give them such apps. I tried the app and its simple and nice without ads. And proper parental control is there for In-App purchases. But as I said I am not an expert on this subject. I rest my case to experts.

      APPs are at best a simulation of a small part of the experiences that Montessori programs offer. Children learn through their hands, and a digital device, at least at this time, does not offer direct experience of the hand in the way that carrying a breakable material from the shelf to a table and working with the concrete material. If your child is in a Montessori school, my recommendation is to limit or not even introduce digital devices as "learning" tools. They tend to be preprogrammed and hypnotic. There is a wonderful role that digital devices can play in anyone's education and growth, but we need to be very careful about casually allow a tablet or smartphone to be an important part of a young child's day. It is far better to have them be part of a community of children, working with well-trained Montessori guides, ina fully-implemented Montessori classroom setting.

    State education prepares people for Statism. Capitalism equals free markets- which would certainly include a free market in education, precisely what we don't have. Montessori flies in the face of the state-run education system, which politicians finance by looting from producers like me, you, and other people engaged in capitalistic activities-- activities like providing the computer screen and software by which you're reading this in the comfort of your heated or air conditioned room.
