Advantages of Montessori Kindergarten:

1, improve children's practical ability. There are many teaching tools carefully designed for autonomous learning in the classroom of Montessori education. It allows children to play, develop and learn at their own pace. Here, children can develop themselves in courses, activities and teaching AIDS according to their own abilities. Therefore, children's practical ability is also cultivated in the activities.

2. Strengthen communication and interaction between children. Most Montessori education classrooms are mixed-aged, and life skills such as tolerance and acceptance can be cultivated in the process of learning from each other.

3, improve autonomy Montessori education attaches great importance to the development of self-confidence and free creativity. In Montessori education, most of the learning process depends on self-guidance, and children can gain a sense of independence and self-confidence from activities more quickly.

4. Improve your interest in learning. Children who have received Montessori education will remain curious about others and the world around them in the future, and will regard learning as a process that they love and run through their lives, rather than a burden. This idea will accompany their children for the rest of their lives.

Shortcomings of Montessori Kindergarten:

1, high cost demand. Montessori education needs high cost, and the demand for many high-quality teaching AIDS and the training courses designed around these materials are very expensive, so you need to consider your own economic situation if you want to learn Montessori education.

2. The educational environment is relaxed. The central idea of Montessori education is "let children do whatever they want", so there are relatively few rules in this environment, which can work normally under ideal circumstances, but the reality may cause many loopholes and may develop children's lazy attitude.

It is not always good to let children develop independently. Montessori education is to let children think from their own perspective, while the real working environment generally emphasizes the direction of the team. Some children like regular work and rest and an organized life. However, the classroom of Montessori education is designed to allow free movement and change. The traditional graded classroom has a low tolerance for freedom, but it can also ensure that the classroom environment makes people feel orderly, safe and regular, so some children may not break through this obstacle, but develop to the bad side.

Generally speaking, Montessori education is a good way of education, and of course it is not suitable for everyone, so it doesn't matter. Parents can choose schools for their children according to their personality and characteristics.
