Our Academics
Montessori Academy of Naples is dedicated to the philosophy and educational method developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. Our purpose is to guide each child in a thoughtfully prepared environment to become an independent thinker, resourceful problem solver, and a positive contributing member in our society by focusing on the development of the whole child.
THE MULTI-AGE CLASSROOM
Classes with 3-year age spans facilitate mentorship among the students and encourage leadership development.
MONTESSORI MATERIALS
A hallmark of Montessori is specially designed materials that provide a hands-on approach to learning.
CHILD-DIRECTED WORK
Students are given agency to self-select work, leading to intrinsic motivation and sustained attention.
UNINTERRUPTED WORK PERIODS
MONTESSORI TEACHERS
An extended period of “free choice” enables students to work at their own pace and without interruption.
A properly credentialed Montessori teacher has the skills and expertise to implement high-fidelity Montessori.
