What is Montessori Education

This is an educational method practiced to support children's development by Maria Montessori (1870-1952), one of Italy's first female doctors, a psychiatrist, social reformer, feminist and pacifist. Montessori objectively and scientifically observed children, created an environment that met the needs of each child at their developmental stage, and discovered a way to support the innate potential of each and every child. She discovered that children have the ability to learn on their own if they are given the right environment and appropriate support, and this had a major impact on the world of education around the world.
In 1907, Maria Montessori established the Children's House (Casa dei Bambini) in San Lorenzo, a very poor area of Rome at that time, and since then, Montessori education has continued to spread around the world. Its excellence has also been recognized in the latest fields of brain science and psychology.
Montessori education supports a child's early childhood, the most important period for the formation of their personality, in terms of the human, material and psychological environment. In this course, you will first learn what a child is and how they develop, and then you will learn the appropriate environment and support methods for this.
