Deciding on the best preschool to help a child’s development is crucial to their future success. Making sure that they have all the resources they need to learn and grow is how a Montessori Education is different from other programs. Paramount Montessori has compiled a short list of the many ways a Montessori education is different from other preschools.

3 ways a Montessori Education is different from other preschools include:

1. Age appropriate Montessori materials: Making sure that a child is learning at a steady pace, but in a manner that is interesting and engaging helps to develop a love of learning at a young age. Also, these materials help the teaching staff to understand a child’s learning style and pace. The child sets their learning pace and the materials are garnered towards a child’s individual needs. At other preschools, the teacher sets the pace and the materials may not be individually based.
2. Low staff to child ratio: Paramount Montessori caps the classroom to ensure a low staff to child ratio. This helps to make sure every child has individualized attention and guidance throughout the learning day. Children develop discipline and the understanding of making choices and the consequences to certain choices in the learning environment. Other preschools can be overcrowded, which means that the child does not get the attention that he/she needs to continue learning.
3. Montessori certified staff: Trained teachers help to instill the best teaching practices in the classroom. They have a full and attentive understanding of Montessori learning materials and processes. They guide the learning environment but also are trained to help the child develop confidence in their learning abilities. Other preschools may have a generalized structure of teaching materials in the classroom.
