Can the Montessori approach help a child with difficulties in reading, spelling or math?
Dr. Montessori observed that every child has an intuitive goal of self-development, and it was only necessary to give him or her useful tools to accomplish learning. Her materials allow just that. Each child in the Montessori classroom moves at his or her own pace, and is not rushed through concepts. The Montessori Materials are self-correcting, and a child is permitted to use each material as long as and as many times as he or she wishes until a concept is mastered. And, because the children are not all working on the same thing at the same time, they are each focused on their own work, not on comparisons with neighboring students.
