Advantages and disadvantages of "Meng Ban" coexist

In this regard, the reporter interviewed Ms. Hua, an expert engaged in preschool education in Taiyuan and director of preschool education department of Taiyuan Kindergarten Teachers College. She said that Montessori education has a unique educational concept and system, and achieved good educational results, so that this educational concept still affects education and teaching in many countries, and it is really popular in most cities in China.

At present, the main problem is that due to the great regional differences in China, the development level of many Montessori classes is uneven, and some kindergartens are keen on the localization research of Montessori education, which has achieved remarkable results and is still being explored, studied and improved unremittingly. At the same time, however, the level of teachers in some kindergartens is low, and teacher training lags behind. Teachers have a superficial understanding of the concept of Montessori education. Driven by economic interests, they implement an ineffective or blind or even harmful education for their children, which has a negative impact on their healthy growth. Therefore, whether teachers can really understand and use Montessori's thoughts to educate and influence children is the key to the quality of Mongolian classroom.

The expert mentioned to the reporter that the parents she had heard reported that after receiving Montessori education, their children became unruly and very uncomfortable after attending primary school. Analyzing the reasons, firstly, it is because the ideas and methods of Montessori education are not really based on the national conditions of China in the process of localization. In our country, primary school, junior high school and even senior high school are all traditional education models, which require students to sit at desks and listen to teachers, while Montessori class allows children to sit on the floor. Without desks and benches, children have become accustomed to the "free" activity atmosphere, which is not suitable for the primary school education model. In addition, Montessori education advocates "silent education", which may make children become introverted and too obedient if it causes discomfort. However, the pre-school education that really integrates Montessori's thought has great influence and function on people's lifelong education and development through practice. For example, children who have received this kind of education are "gentlemen", polite, logical and practical, creative, persistent and have a strong sense of order ... Teacher Slip said that as a teacher training base for preschool education, the primary task of preschool teachers is to adapt to social development and parents' requirements and cultivate qualified Montessori teachers. In the context of China, they inherited and developed the advanced ideas of Montessori education, making Montessori education and teaching effective, high-quality and efficient.

Suggestion: Parents should choose carefully.

Experts say that in the process of educating children, it is not limited to a certain corner of the school, and the influence of the whole social environment on people is everywhere, especially parents are the first teachers for children's growth. Parents should spare as much time and energy as possible to accompany their children, strengthen their self-cultivation, learn more advanced educational concepts and teaching methods, take their babies to parent-child classes, and enhance their feelings in the process of learning together.

If parents have chosen Mongolian lessons for their children, they should observe more at the teaching site to see if the teacher can simply and accurately demonstrate the use of the "teaching aid" to their children and whether they can always understand the children's reaction to this teaching aid, because qualified Montessori teachers will carefully observe the children's inner needs with an open mind, and at the same time, they can really understand the meaning of "taking children as the main body", instead of ordering children to do this or that in a forced tone. They will squat down and talk to the children during the demonstration. It is suggested that parents should have a clear understanding of the conditions of kindergartens, especially the situation of teachers, and should not blindly follow the crowd when choosing to enroll their children in Mongolian classes.
