AMI Montessori students are…

• Joyful and creative learners

“The way you learn in Montessori, the way the materials completely engage you, is  completely different from more conventional learning styles, and it has made a great difference in my life.”

• Better socialized and able to solve their conflicts

“Montessori taught me how to act around people: to be kind, respectful. I found myself acting a little differently than the other kids did… in a good way.”

• Fluent readers who are also able to understand mathematical concepts

“Montessori has helped me in every way I approach life, not just school. It has helped socially, academically, and has helped me grow as a person. It’s amazing.”
“The teachers are able to focus more on you to help you learn and do better. They are able to hold you to a high standard so when you transition to a bigger environment, you are more than a face in the crowd.”

• In possession of natural self-esteem

“The things my daughter learned during her years in Montessori were to be proactive for herself, become organized, be more confident, and as a result she became a very successful student. I think if it weren’t for Montessori she wouldn’t be where she is today… wouldn’t have the confidence or the strength that she has to pursue studies and work independently, and she is very happy. Montessori truly, truly changed her life.”

• Courteous and respectful in their interactions

“The biggest difference between a Montessori and traditional school environment is in the relationships with teachers. I’ve never been able to find the same level of closeness with my teachers as I did in Montessori. The teachers were always there for you… they really cared.”
