Hands-on Learning Creates Successful Adults


"We both went to Montessori schools, and I think as part of that training of not following rules and orders, and being self motivated, questioning what’s going on in the world, doing things a little bit differently..."
Sergey Brin and Larry Page, Founders of Google


"The idea that we don’t have to reinvent the wheel was striking. The example of thousands of Montessori schools is before us. Montessori puts the student at the center. It is proven to work.  As noted by Sivadlk it’s working on every inhabited continent, at every economic level. The approach is over 100 years old but the ideas are timeless. The world is finally catching up with Maria Montessori’s insights."
Steve Denning, Forbes



"I do not belive there is a method better than Montessori for making children sensitive to the beauties of the world and awakening their curiosity regarding the secrets of life."
Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Nobel Peace Prize winner
