What is Montessori? 🍃

Montessori is an internationally recognized approach to education where children learn by doing, not just by listening.

In a prepared environment, children choose their activities, work at their own pace, and learn through hands-on materials and real-life tasks.

This builds independence, concentration, and problem-solving skills from an early age.

A Classroom in Motion 🌿

From ages 1 to 12, each child at YEM is engaged in meaningful work, at their own pace.

You’ll notice the calm, the focus, the quiet concentration. Children working with purpose, fully absorbed in what they are doing. This is the Montessori environment in action.

At YEM, children are placed in an environment purposefully designed to meet their developmental needs, allowing focus, independence, and confidence to emerge naturally.

✨ Focus. Independence. Joy of learning.

What is the Montessori method?

The Montessori system is an educational approach developed by Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952) that emphasizes independence, hands-on learning, and respect for a child’s natural development. It encourages children to learn through exploration and discovery at their own pace in a structured environment.

The Montessori Learning Environment

All the materials in a Montessori classroom have been specially designed to support specific learning objectives, fostering independence, and concentration.

The method fosters rigorous, self-motivated growth for children in all areas of their development—cognitive, emotional, social, and physical. Teachers, known as guides, facilitate learning by observing each child and providing individualised support rather than leading the entire class in one activity.
