About Les Tournesols - Montessori Bilingual School

How we differ... What is the difference between the Montessori education and the traditional education? Montessori represents an entirely different approach to education, allowing the child to develop in a natural way. Firstly, there is an appreciation of the innate potential of the child and his/her ability to develop in environmental conditions of freedom and love. The prepared environment is calm, peaceful and appropriate to the child’s needs. A major principle of Montessori is that a young child learns through sensory motor activity – by doing. The method also emphasis learning through all five senses, not just through listening, watching or reading. Child sized sensorial equipment together with languages, mathematics and science material practical life exercises and cultural and environmental activities are offered. Children in Montessori classes learn at their own individual pace, and according to their own choice of activities from hundreds of possibilities. Learning is an exciting process of discovery, leading to concentration, motivation, self-discipline and love of learning. The result of the Montessori method is that each child is given the best possible conditions to promote physical, social, emotional and intellectual development, wherein the aim is to help the child fulfil their potential.
