What outcomes can be expected of a Montessori education?
Adults who had a Montessori education as children are typically lifelong learners, intrinsically motivated to seek academic challenges for the enjoyment and satisfaction of attaining skills. They tend to be unafraid of failure and are self-reflecting, easily learning from their mistakes. They are often creative, confident, competent, successful people who will share their knowledge and ideas, taking great satisfaction in self-expression. Montessori children tend to be empathetic and compassionate, often growing up with a moral sense of social responsibility. They tend to be exceptionally respectful and appreciate the work of others. With the self-discipline, skills and attitudes that are valued in the real world, these are the men and women we hope our children will grow up to be.
